The shock of being in captivity would actually depress the animals; they would even act violently and might hurt people near them. And it is not the animal to be fault. Firstly‚ the ecosystem became unbalanced. Secondly If the humans kept the wild animals in the zoo‚ they will ruin their food chain. Animals need to run a lot

    Animals Should Not Be Kept In Zoos Animals love being in their natural habitat; the wild. Far too many wild animals are kept in zoos being poorly treated and tried to shape into domestic pets. Majority of the enclosures are too small for the animals inside them. So many animals lose their natural instincts and then then if they are returned to the wild for any reason they don’t know how to act or hunt as a wild animal. People say it’s okay to have animals in zoos because it’s educational but it
