nearly 8 billion people encroaching on their natural habitat and resources. The species are being hunted for their meat, fur, tusks, and medical benefits. Hunters and poachers have put nearly 1,000 animals on the verge of extinction. Being brutally killed or poached is what animals in zoos do not have to worry about (anastrophe). Conservation programs and breeding programs have brought many species back from being on the edge of extinction. The zoo's reintroduced some of these animals back into the wild after they were at a safe number for population, and when they knew that they could breed on their own. Captive breeding in zoos has accelerated to a sprint (personification), which led to more research being done to help keep captive animals healthy and to help the wild animals become even more healthy. Due to the research they have done on the animals the scientists have been able to understand, save, and replenish natural habitats. Zoos help fund and facilitate species and preserve genetic biodiversity, and then reintroduce endangered or extinct species back into the wild. Researchers, very …show more content…
They make a great educational field trip for children to observe the animals in real life. Zoos run education programs to teach people about conservation and care for animals. Zoos commonly inspire people to protect the animals as well. Zoos also give people a chance to learn about animals without putting themselves in danger in the wild. Rare animals are commonly displayed so people get the opportunity to see new animals, such like a visit to the San Diego Zoo where you can experience the panda bear exhibit. There have been signs added to inform people about the animals in that given location. Along with that, parents get the opportunity to teach their children new things. People love seeing the animals in real life. It is a far better learning experience when you can observe the animals for
