Zoos should be band!

How would you like to be taken from your mum and put in cage with a cold floor and a concrete wall no trees or decoration?

Zoos are miserable places for animals!

In 2010, an investigator filmed sick animals left untreated and dead animals to rot on floors at Tweddle Farm Zoo. The Captive Animals Protection Society (CAPS) had to take rabbits to a vet to have infections treated. After they had cleared out the whole zoo they found  a monkey who had been kept alone in a little box and given cake and other junk food to eat instead of proper food.

 

Animals are still getting taken from the wild!

In 2003 the UK government gave permission for the capture of 146 penguins from a British territory in the South Atlantic.When they had the penguins they sold them to Asia zoo.                                         70% of elephants in European zoos were taken from the wild.

Do you think its fair to take animals out of there home and through them in jail for the rest of there life! I don’t think thats fair I think thats cruel.

elephants live longer in the wild!

African elephants in the wild live more than three times as long as those kept in zoos. Even Asian elephants! And they work in timber camps live longer than those born in zoos.

So I hope after you have read my work you will agree that ZOOS SHOULD BE BAND!!!!
