Ways we can help animals!

­We can motivate people to protect the animals

Information that they give people at zoos can help motivate people to save animals.

­We can effect their habitat in a good way.

Instead of destroying their habitats maybe we can do something good for them, because zoos are taking animals only is if their habitat is destroyed.

­There are other places people can see animals

There are other places people can see animals. People can go to the wild to see them or a“ sanctuary. A true sanctuary does not buy, sell, or breed animals, but takes in unwanted exotic pets, surplus animals from zoos or injured wildlife that can no longer survive in the wild” states About. com.

­ Breeding programs

They put animals that are not able to breed or mate in breeding programs. This is good because extinct animals can reproduce and they won ' t be extinct any more.

­Reaction and education

Many zoos are helping young adults and kids how to help out with zoos and they are also helping them learn about animals. They are also spreading the word.
