Animals are Not Attractions!

Animals deserve to live, but not to be attractions! Even in the best zoos, for the animal it is like being in a giant dentist's office aquarium! I know that putting a lot of animals back in the wild is a bad idea, because then they will probably become extinct. But they deserve to be on reserves, especially in their native habitats! I agree with PETA that zoos are wrong, but this needs to get out to the public more!
We the undersigned agree that zoos are wrong. Animals deserve better lives than zoo lives. They need to be on reserves, especially on native habitats.
Think of the animals as you would think a person. You wouldn't like being trapped in a cage until you died, would you? I certainly wouldn't.
While going to zoos is a regular part in a good family's life, families can be doing many other things to enjoy the wildlife. They can go for a walk in a nature park, or go to a local lake.
Thank you for taking your time to read the letter.
