ZOO
The article states that zoos are essential and provides three reasons of support. However, the professor explains that activists don’t believe that zoos benefit animals or society and refutes the author's reasons.
First, the reading states that animals are treated well in zoos. The professor refutes this point. He states that animals are not treated well. He explains that in a zoo, two read pandas died from exposure to rat poison. Zoo safety managers could have prevented this but were not present. The professor explains that this proves that zoo administrators show a lack of care towards animals.
Second, the article claims that zoos are educational. However, the professor says that zoos are still seen as entertainment. The animals in zoos attract visitors. They aren’t the animals that the public should really learn about. Zoos send the message that animals can be used for our own purposes. He states that though some zoos attempt to inform, we can’t understand them in zoos because they are in artificial and misleading exhibits.
Third, the reading claims that zoos protect endangered species. The professor says that this claim is problematic. He explains that the Taamarin is one successful example but that overall, zoos have a poor success rate. Zoos possess a small number of endangered species so they tend to interbreed, which results in birth defects. Also, he states that zoos offer no advantage to saving animals in their native habitat.
