What are the benefits and drawbacks of keeping animals in zoos? Well, first of all, keeping animals in a zoo gives us a chance to see some rare and

wild animals we would never get to see (otherwise) other than on TV. In addition, I think that scientists and zoo staff do some research on the animals in order to learn more about the species and to protect them from extinction. In China pandas now mostly live in zoos because they have to be protected from poachers (= hunters) and from the expansion of farming in forest areas. On the other hand, people often complain that the cages are too small, and that animals seem to lose their wild instincts in the zoo. I went to the zoo a couple of years ago, and a lot of animals looked sad, almost depressed.
