Happy,an Asian elephant,lives at the Bronx Zoo,in New York City.But the Nonhuman Rights Project(NhRP)says the zoo doesn't provide the space that Happy needs,and Happy r71has social activities.The NhRP is taking the Bronx Zoo to court.The case has restarted conversations about whether or not zoos should still exist.Here,TIME for Kids readers weigh in. Many animal species are saved from disappearing forever thanks to zoos.This past summer,I saw the California condor(at the San Diego Zoo and learned about the breeding (program there. Grace Hipp,8 Several decades ago,these animals were almost g 72 in the wild. But the zoo has taken some of them in and helped them breed.Now there are many more California condors. We should not have zoos.In zoos,animals might not be given Yanni Warrenson,12 proper living conditions.They might also be mistreated for entertainment purposes.Animals can feel stressed by the 173 space of the cage,an unfamiliar environment,and the presence of humans.A2003 study of35 species of carnivores(肉食动物)found Shane Madrak.10 that zoos were too small for some of the animals to carry out their normal d 74 activities. We should still have zoos for a few reasons.Zoos provide animals with food and a habitat(牺居地)that is e_75_like their natural Susie Slawsky.9 habitat.Zoos also breed animals to i 76 their population.And most zoos have educational programs that help children learn about different animals and conservation(保护)efforts.. Animals are kept away from their homes,where they have lots of space to talk a walk,and put in fenced areas or cages.If it's a crowded day at the zoo,some animals might get uncomfortable. When they're in zoos,they can also lose their natural instincts ()If they were r 77 into the wild,they wouldn't know how to survive.An animal's health is more important than our entertainment.
