Zoo Animals
Human beings have always wanted to hunt wild animals, not only for food or sport, but also to keep in captivity. Many cities have zoos with a large collection of animals on show. Some zoos such as the Singapore Zoo and Taronga Park in Sydney are famous tourist attractions. Zoos have both positive and negative aspects. Sometimes keeping animals in captivity benefits the humans and sometimes the animals benefit; but, at times, the animals suffer as a result of their confinement.
Zoos give most people in the world their only opportunity to study wild animals at close quarters. Even people who are lucky enough to go on a wild life safari in Africa are not able to see animals at such close range. In some zoos in Australia it is possible for visitors to wander among animals such as kangaroos and deer and feed them by hand. For urban children it is a delight to actually see the animals which they have seen on television. Zoos also provide scientists with the opportunity to study animals over a period to time.
Scientific research conducted on zoo animals adds to human knowledge, and it benefits animals too. Treatments for diseases which have been developed for animals in captivity can be made available for all animals. Anoth
