In my opinion, I think that building the zoo is a good idea. If we have a zoo, we can watch the animals and learn to care them easily. While in the zoo the animals should be treated well. They shouldn’t be put in the cages. They are supposed to be relaxed and free .
After all , the zoo is the home for animals , not just for fun.Section B 5 Stop riding in cars
