Online Research Of Space

The Los Angeles Zoo first opened in the year 1966. With 133 acres of land, it currently houses over one thousand animals. The Los Angeles Zoo is meant to attract anyone who wants to catch a glimpse of these exotic animals. The whole goal of this place is to allow people to have a chance to observe these wild animals do what they do up close and personal in a secure and safe environment. This is more to serve as entertainment. By doing so they decorate every cage to make it look more like the animal’s natural habitat. The Zoo also attempts to attract people do to educational purposes. People, who want to study animals, by observing the way the animals behave with other animals, are able to do so in the Los Angeles ZOO. The Zoo claims that not only are they helping people have the opportunity to catch a glimpse of these animals, but that they are also helping these animals from harm. The wild is full of danger and the risk of death is high, but the Zoo claims that by capturing these animals, they are allowing the animals to do they normally do in a more secure and safer environment.
After conducting my own research, what I theorized in person supports the envisioned purpose of the space itself. As I entered the Zoo, I felt as if I was able to observe these animals safely. It was very entertaining to see all these different species of animals due to the fact that I rarely see then so up close in person. Some of the animals that I have observed have recently gone through surgery. This allowed myself to become fully aware at the fact that the animals are being taken care of, and that their health handled properly
