Shut Up Zoos, Not Animals

You may think that visiting zoos is harmless fun, but you're wrong because zoos are just prisons for animals. The difference is that prisoners get out after a few years! Animals in cages look bored and sad. After all, we all know what an elephant looks like, and we've seen them on TV. So why make animals hurt by shutting them up for our fun?

Shut up the zoos instead!

I partly agree. But some zoos aren't there for fun. I've just got back from Jersey Zoo. It saves endangered animals and feeds them. Then it returns the babies to the wild. Not all zoos are the same, you know.

Quite agree! Every time I go to the zoo, I never look into the poor animals' eyes! Kept in the small and smelly cages, they look so lonely. Hope one day they will return to nature, where they can live happily and freely with their family.

I sat down on the nearest stone and ____ to be comforted. Even my uncle promised that there were more fish in the river. He refitted my bait, put the pole again in my hands, and told me to try my luck once more.
