Answers
Answer:
they understand tha caring for animals is a good profession .
Answer:
Hence, the correct option is (c) zoos sensitize children to animals.
Explanation:
For people of all ages, socioeconomic backgrounds, and socio-economic levels, zoos have historically offered an affordable form of amusement. They present a wide range of opportunities to inform and sensitize individuals. There are more than 150 zoos in India, and they draw up to 50 million people a year, according to CEE India.
Children today are largely disconnected from nature. For outdoor education to compete with the internet, television, and play stations, a beautiful location is needed. Children are able to visit the animals at zoos. Their imagination is given shape, and a new universe of wonder is unlocked. Many of them grow up to fight for the preservation of wildlife. Reuben David, an advocate for wildlife in India, founded the Ahmedabad zoo. During his tenure, the zoo significantly aided in conservation and research and grew to be one of India's most notable zoos.
In zoos around the world, animals are traded. Human-animal conflict is getting worse. From 1994 to 2010, according to the Wildlife Protection Society of India, at least 3,189 leopards were killed. Leopards are hunted because they prey on animals and penetrate homes. Wildlife requires protection.
The problem shouldn't be banning the poorly maintained zoos, but rather increasing funding for naturalizing the environment, caring for and feeding the animals, facilitating captive breeding programmed, conducting research, and reviving endangered species. Other priorities should include understanding animal behavior, enhancing animal husbandry, creating conservation initiatives, and educating the public. Zoos offer life-system education and have significant educational and research value. They are a sustainable form of conservation.
So, the correct option is (c) zoos sensitize children to animals.
