of zoos it is an awesome place to take kids or even a couple dating. the experiences you get from learning about different species of animals is pretty interesting. And by owning a zoo, it helps the animals live a long life until their demise. Sometimes people get wild animals thye are not supposed to have and once a wild animal lives in society homes, they can't fend for themselves out in the wild, so thye get placed in zoos where they get to live out their lives. I am thankful for zoos.
