Zoos and can be places where the imagination and creativity of people, especially children, can come alive and inspire them to tread avenues that they never expected they would take. In the early years of my childhood, I spent many hours observing and studying wild animal exhibits in zoos in Seattle Washington. I would imagine myself in my dream world as zoo keeper or a veterinarian helping animals and knowing them each by name. As I studied and let my imagination run free; I knew that someday, somehow, I would be involved in the care of animals. Without the establishment of zoos and, I would have never realized my dreams and perused a career in biology and animal care.

Zoos educate the public about animals and the problems they face in the wild. " The fastest and most direct way for people to save and care about an endangered species is to connect with them," says Rob Vernon, the AZA's communications coordinator (Mendoza). Zoos are also convenient for people to see wild animals as not everyone has the opportunity to go to Africa and see them in person (Mendoza). Many believe that engaging with animals in person can be more inspiring and educational than a picture on a television screen. Only the smallest impact can make a huge impression.

Cohn writes that the medical care for elephants increased significantly that led to the reduction of animal diseases and deaths (716). The elephant enclosures are expanded in order to house more elephants that can form a natural group they typically form in the wild (Cohn 716). Most zoos walk their elephants to ensure they move enough as it is important for their health, moreover, zoo staff encourages natural behavior and, by doing that, surpasses their duties (Cohn 716). Borrell also states that most of the zoos are getting better by constantly changing and improving their programs and housing conditions (9). What is more, they serve as a reminder of success in animal conservation and encourage people to continue working on it (Borrell 9).

But that is not the actual purpose of the zoo and it is rare to see those types of zoos. All in all, with the continuing global threats to the atmosphere it is hard for individuals to visualize zoos as something apart from being essential to the long-term survival of various species. Not just in terms of protecting them and breeding them for reintroduction, but to learn regarding them to assist those still within the wild, as well as to educate and inform the general public about these animals and their world: to pique their interest so they will assist or at least accept the necessity to be more environmentally aware. Sure there are many possibilities for improvement, but these benefits are essential to several species and potentially at least. Without zoos, the world would be a much poorer place.
