Animal cruelty
By Jess
While Australia is full to the roof of animal lovers, unfortunately there are still some people in our community who treat animals cruelly. The
Melbourne Zoo is one of the zoos that are
committed to giving these animals all of the food,
water and space that they need .
Intro
Back in the olden days the cages were about as wide as a hallway and as long as a bathroom. They would also shove about 4 animals into that space. All the animals could do was stay in their cage with one toy and three meals a day. Sadly back then the zoo was mainly for the people …not the animals!
History
The importance of our animals
Animals are very important in our circle! Life would not work without them. From
my experiences at the zoo, I noticed how smart the
animals are. Look at how the otter swims, how the Tasmanian devil and the
wombats burrow, how the seals flip and how the lion
catch their prey.
No more circus tricks All over the world there
are zoos that use seals and dolphins as circus clowns they train them to do ridiculous tricks
just to get some humour out of it . You may think
that the animals are having a good time
doing tricks out there but they are really not. They would definitely
rather be down with the other seals and dolphins swimming around and
playing
Think about this
Imagine you were locked up in a cramped cage all day, every day with nothing to do.
And every week you would be forced to go out and utterly humiliate yourself in front of flashing cameras, beeping cell phones and laughing faces of children. It is not fair!
You can be the change
Melbourne Zoo has stopped using their
animals as trick masters and you can too. All you have to
do is
Think Learn
Act
