Zoos have been around since ancient Egypt in 1500 BC. I really like zoos because they protect threatened and endangered species. And they give you a chance to see many different animals from all over the world.
Zoos also help scientists study animals up close. And when people see the animals at the zoo, they can't help but care more about them. And if they care about them, they'll do more to help save the animals.
Here's some video from my recent trip to Riverbanks Zoo in Columbia, South Carolina.
What zoos have you been to? What are your favorite animals?
