Zoo Writing

We all thought that zoo’s were great at some point, looking after the animals, being friendly to them, and teaching them tricks. But no! Not many people know what goes on after hours at the zoo. It is not good. My three main points may change your minds about zoos for the best.


Zoos often keep animals in small enclosures for long periods of time. They paint fake backgrounds to look like their natural surrounding, but the animals are not dumb they know that it is fake. They get put in little cages which is not good. I think Elephants and cheetahs especially don't belong in zoos because elephants are use to traveling very long distances in a herd each day, Cheetahs are used to having all the space they want to run as fast as they can chasing prey.     


Animals living in zoos have a shorter lifespan than animals living in the wild. Many are getting sick and stressing out. They are getting zoochosis which means they suffer from bordism and start stressing more . Lots of animals are living on concreted floors in zoos. That is not natural.


Zoos are cruel to animals. They put them in little cages in the winter and in the summer they are kept in small rooms with fake paintings of animals so they think they are not alone. They feed them bad food and many get left for long periods of time with no water . An example of that was when a tiger died in a zoo a few years ago from getting feed bad food . On the counter side you may think zoos are a good place for animals but no.The animals would much rather be out in the wild where they can catch their prey instead of getting bored doing nothing other than entertaining you!

Those are my reasons for getting rid of zoos. I hope this has changed your mind about zoos for the best.

Commonwealth Games

     Commonwealth Games Are Here To Stay!!!


I think the Commonwealth Games are important so I think we should keep it going. I want the rest of the world to be convinced that we should keep the Commonwealth Games.  


One of my main points is that I think we should keep the Commonwealth Games because it gives smaller countries a chance. In the Olympics lots of the small counties get left out or never win because of the big countries. The big countries have more money so they can buy all the equipment to practice with so they have a bigger chance of winning.


The Commonwealth Games are a good practice for the Olympics. Also it gives a practice run for beginners that leads to the Olympics. It gets New Zealand a chance for more medals. The sports that aren't in the Olympics a chance to shine in their sport.


On the counter side the athletes think it is expensive,but they have to remember that they get sponsors so the will take away lots of the cost. Some say we already have the Olympics so why do we need the Commonwealth Games, but I say that all of the sports don't get to play in the Olympics miss out so its a good way to show their talent to the world.


I really think we should
keep the Commonwealth Games going for all my reasons. Can YOU image the sad faces on all the competitors if  you told them that the Commonwealth Games were stopping? And I think most people will agree to keep the Commonwealth Games going for a lot longer.
