Whether we need zoos or not? This question is difficult to answer. There are many opinions about keeping wild animals in zoos. Also there are supporters and opponents of this problem. On the one hand, this problem has many positive aspects. For example, animals are under constant care of employees of the zoo. Every inhabitant of the zoo can be adopted and donated money to meet its needs. Also in zoos people can learn more about habits of wild animals. Another important feature of zoos is conservation and breeding of rare species. On the other hand, animals are deprivedof their natural habitat and are located in enclosures, besides in some zoos are not quite spacious cages and animals can just move in a small area of fenced space. To sum up, I consider that keeping animals in zoos has more positive points than negative ones. Workers of zoos are trying to recreate the most optimal wildlife habitat and create the best conditions for life in world
