Should animals be kept in captivity?
Many animals are abused by their owner daily. The animals in the book Animal Farm get treated really bad by their owner and want to make a rebellion. Everyday every 5 seconds an animals is being abused by a bad owner, but there are also good owners who take care of their animals like they are their kid. That is the type of leader people like me want to see. The majority of animals such as reptiles and amphibians that have to be kept in one of the small plastic containers don't like life. If your animal can run in the habitat or if it's 3-5 times its size depending on what type of animal it is its the good size. If you live on a farm like the the animals off the book Animal Farm your animals should have room to run. Also, if you get a new pet don't mess with it for the first few days so it can get used to its new habitat. It's a law that you can't abuse your animals and if you do you will have to go to jail for a long time. In conclusion, treat you animals with respect, feed them what they need, give them a good habitat, watch them see if they are doing good, and if you can't follow all of these I wouldn't recommend getting an animal.

extinction
The giant panda is on the verge of being extinct such as many other animals. Some people think the main reasons of animals being extinct is natural disasters, but the biggest reason is because of us people.
All people have different opinions in how animals go extinct. Some people such as Al Gore think the reason animals go extinct is because of global warming but that’s proven to be a myth. Other animals can’t find food, which makes since but isn’t the biggest reason. Also, because they get attacked by predators. For example, a Gazelle's predator is a lion, a swordfish's predator is a great white shark, and finally a frogs predator is a snake. Another reason animals go extinct is because of natural disasters. Many natural disasters including volcanoes, hurricanes, sunamis, tornadoes, floods, blizzards, avalanches, earthquakes, and even lightning strikes kill off many animals.
People are the main cause that most animals go extinct. When people started building houses they destroyed many animal habitats. Also, when the hunters and gathers started they began to kill the wildlife such as buffalo. They killed about ¾ of all the buffalo population, but now it's not as bad because, the buffalo came back. When people made houses they cut down trees which animals lived in. They pollute the air and water with the huge factories that were made. Also, people killed animals for sport, such as hunting and fishing. There are many ways that people kill animals including the ones above.
In conclusion, many types of animals go extinct and there are many reasons that it happened, but the main reason is people. Today there are 3.5 billion extinct creatures right now and it may go up if we don't change our ways.
