Berger says ‘everywhere animals disappear. Zoos constitute monuments to their own disappearance’.
I partly agree and partly disagree.

In this article, Dr Marc Bekoff states many zoos kill animals. This is because they are unwanted, either due to taking up space, not breedable, too expensive to keep, or ill. Therefore agreeing with Berger's essay that zoos are making animals disappear.

On the other hand, zoos accredited with AZA (Association of Zoos and Aquariums) help endangered and sick animals to survive. They do this through field conservation, captive breeding, and reintroduction programmes.

Most animals are kept in too small environments in zoos, not enough space to explore or sleep like they would do in the wild. Would you want to sleep here? I certainly wouldn't.
