Zoos Don’t Help Animals
There remains no compelling evidence for the claim that zoos and aquariums promote attitude change, education, or interest in conservation in visitors.
More here. HT Marc Bekoff who notes:
Elephants in captivity lived an average of 19 years compared to 56 years in the wild.
I think there are very few zoo that give an natural environment to the animals live in it that make them live a better life same as the in the wild or else animals in zoo are in a very poor condition.
