Circuses are cruel the animals are keep in small unsuitable cages and travel from place to place made to preform unnatural behaviours for the public and we as a family would never go to a circus that has animals. Zoos are a different story . Most zoo now realise that that they need to give the animals in their care large more natural enclousures. The staff spend alot of time coming up with idea and things to keep the animals active and using there natural skills. Most zoo also are part of endangered breeding programmes which are help to save many animals from dying out because there natural enviorment is being destroyed by us humans. They also often support work in the countries the animal natural live to help educate locals and work with them to try and stop the destrution of the spieces and find way both humans and aimals can live together happily.

I have to agree with your call here. Zoos often contribute to conservation and study of the animals they have. Normally animals always have atleast some space to roam, and the better zoos actually attempt to reconstruct their natural habitat. A really good one Ive seen is Animal Kingdom in Disney World. The animals pretty much just free roam in their own sections of the park, and theyve attempted to construct habitats at least somewhat like the animals native habitats.
Circuses on the other hand, they are well documented abusers of animals, and the animals exist for no other reason than the entertainment of people.

I understand keeping animals in zoos because they are at risk, but what about the animals that are thriving in the wild? The zoos use excuses like "We're trying to educate people", but what are people going to learn if they see someone playing with a grizzly bear? I think that animals should live on reserves, NOT zoos. As for circuses, they keep their animals in tiny cages and use cruel training methods. People should have left animals in the wild, but since the "wild" has been taken away by cities, poachers, and chemicals, it is our responsibility to protect them, not abuse them.

teach your dog to come when called. Use a long line, call your dog if he does not come your correction will be to pop the dog into you and praise him. Read here https://tr.im/4p1q5
You could use a clicker. Call your dog when she comes click and treat.
The treat has to be something your dog is nuts over. As the handler you have to be more interesting then what is across the street. Use your imagination, I have worked with dogs in the past when the owners called their dog they would turn and start walking the opposite direction then just sit down. The dog out of curiosity would come back to check on the owner. Do not chase your dog. Dogs tend to enjoy the chase game. You did not mention if your dog is bolting out of the door to get out or not. If this is the case teach your dog the wait command at the door. This means no you can not go this time. This is a problem that a lot of people have if their dogs. If you take a lot of time with your dog and are consistent with your training it will work. If your parents see that you are working hard to fix the problem and they see an improvement in your dog your chances will be better for keeping her. Also have you thought of doing 4-H with your dog?

I think animals should be free in the wild. If they r at a zoo or in a circus it kinda bothers me but as long as they treat them well i guess its okay. I hate it when i go to tHe zoo and they trap tHe animals in tiny cages. If they have enough space its better

I agree I am totally against circus animals they treat them horribly and force them to travel around in tiny cages,where they never get to run around and enjoy life. I also don't agree with circus people forcing animals to do tricks:( I think zoos are fine, they are preserving the species and educating people about wildlife!

NO blood no scratches no lost feathers. Dissection facilitates to further clinical analyze and in various circumstances the animals died in organic motives so sick so ok Rodeos horses are meant to be ridden. someone is style of a hat to them. Bulls don’t truly get damage both. Zoos help human beings study about animals and may help to stay away from dropping species from extinction by ability of breeding and reintroduction Kfc abuse who cares its foodstuff we are speaking about, its not like it’s someone or a dogs. searching and fishing shrink the inhabitants of animals to an perfect element. the authorities does analyze in all aspects the position searching and fishing are accepted and in common words enable such fairly some animals to be killed specifically seasons. it truly is so no little ones are orphaned and the inhabitants does not advance to the point the position ailment and over inhabitants do not kill more advantageous animals than searching does. searching saves animal lives and improves their high quality of residing trust it or not.
