1 We all like going to the zoo, but what about the animals? How do they feel? Should we keep animals in zoos, or is it wrong to take them out of their natural habitat? 2 On the one hand, zoos play an important role in nature conservation. Many natural habitats are in danger. By keeping endangered species in zoos, we make sure that they survive. In addition, a good zoo can be very educational as it teaches us how animals behave and how they act in their habitat. This way we learn how to protect them. 3 On the other hand, there are certain drawbacks to keeping animals in zoos. Zoos cannot recreate an animal's natural habitat and animals can be very unhappy in cages. It would be more useful to spend money on protecting habitats rather than zoos. Furthermore, there are a lot of good documentaries about animals so zoos are not really necessary for education. 4 To sum up, there are strong arguments both for and against zoos. Nowadays, most zoos do their best to protect animals. However, I believe that animals should live in an as natural environment as possible and we must do our best to protect them and their habitats. сократить текст в один и три раза на английском
