Do you think its right for animals to be kept in zoos? Do the advantages outweight the disadvantages? What do you think the advantages and disadvantages are?
If people must view wildlife, it works much better to keep the people in a caged area and let the animals roam free in their natural world. In that arrangement, the people have the freedom to leave when the wish but in a zoo, animals don't.
No, its wrong to imprison animals for the entertainment of the public. But the advantage is people get to see animals they otherwise wouldn't like lions, tigers, monkeys etc.
No, it takes away so much from the animal, would you swap out freedom for protection? It takes away the true beauty of the animal to imprison it. Can a tiger really be the majestic, beautiful, dangerous, creature that attracted our eye to it in the first place when it lives in a 20 ft by 20 ft enclosure compared to the miles and miles of woodland it's used to?
