Caging Animals
by Chloe A
Caging Animals for some is a way of entertainment for people who cannot go out and see this wildlife for themselves, it's mainly capturing and confining the animal for a variety of reasons. Like researsch, or money. These animals, in the meantime, should also get their basic needs.(food, habitat, etc.) And workers should be helping to support the conservation of animals and their habitats
One example of this is a Zoo, where animals are confined then displayed to the public. Depending on where you go, the place you visit might be very nicely kept with a good enviroment and activities for the animals. Progressive zoos attempt to maintain best possible standards in animal welfare, education, conservation and research output. Those less responsible institutions are focussed more on economic return and entertainment.
Although, however well kept the institute may be, many people criticize that keeping animals in these places causes them to lose their natural instinct, and lose their talent or ability to hunt for food. So, could keeping animals for entertainment and profit be conisdered unethical? Or is it for the better? Skeptics say that keeping and breeding animals like this deprives the animals of its freedom, but it also raises some very good points. Because keeping these animals also decreases the chances of extinction, assures that they will not be hunted by humans or other animals, and makes sure they would not fall victim to things like changes in climate, Global Warming, and droughts.
In conclusion, I think there is a need to cage animals and put them in Institutes and Zoos so as to save them from these type of things, to give people a chance to appreaciate the wildlife. and give a chance for future generations to appreciate this too. In a good enviroment, confining animals like this is a good way to ocomplish this, though I feel that caging these animals should be for meaningful purposes, and not just for profit. They are living things, and should be treated with care and respect.
