つ選びなさい。

Zoos
Zoos are places where wild animals are kept for public display. They are very popular places forfamilies to visit for a variety of reasons. They provide entertainment thanks to the animals’ often very
interesting natural behavior, and some organized performances ― chimpanzees* are especially easy totrain for this, it seems, and are considered to be fun to watch. Zoos also help to educate both children
and adults about the animals and their situation in the wild, and they allow us to see living things that wewould not otherwise have any opportunity to see because they live far away from our cities or even ourcountr y, or in places that are dangerous or almost impossible for people to go to.
appreciate the diversity* of life on Earth, even with only one visit to a zoo.

We can better

Such a visit is also usually

good exercise for everyone, because the many larger kinds of animals need a lot of space, so we have towalk a lot going around the zoo.
Zoos are often the sites of up-to-date breeding centers, where species that are in danger ofdisappearing from the world may be protected and studied.
primarily businesses.

While zoos can do this as well, they are

They are meant to show off animals to the public, so there is no guarantee thatthe animals are treated as well as they should be, in spite of laws to protect them.

Some animal rightssupporters even claim that zoos are like prisons for animals, and they suffer physically and mentally.
They may not have enough space to move around like they do in their natural environment and they can
get sick easily, especially if other animals nearby are sick. They are often bored, because of the lack ofactivity and the sameness of their everyday lives.

Animals brought up in zoos may be different fromtheir wild relatives in various ways. Mimi Bekhechi, director of international programs at PETA* said
that typical polar bears in zoos are “one million times smaller” than those in the wild.

Many animals

may even die much earlier than is natural.
So, although zoos have many attractions for us and do help to preser ve species that aredisappearing from the world, we need to also be aware of their darker side and try to make sure that we
support those places that can be trusted to help the animals.
* chimpanzee = animal like a monkey which is good at learning to do tricks
diversity = variety of things
PETA = an American animal rights organization
