Situation of animals in zoos
Since July 2005, PETA investigators have visited more than 30 zoos throughout the world and found appalling neglect, decrepit facilities and animal suffering on a massive scale. Every facility was seriously deficient and not well maintained. (continued)

The following situations are:
Scarcity of food and water. Keeping them in iron and concrete cages, separating them from their habitats(i.e. nature) Providing insufficient space; leads to abnormal changes in their behavior. Transforming zoos into abattoirs. Separating them from their own kind and keeping prey and predator together which leads to numerous problems. Water moats are dry, fencing is rusted and insecure and cages are barren and bleak.

How to stop animal cruelty
Recognizing cruelty There are two kinds of animal cruelty: direct violence and neglect. Direct violence. Signs include open wounds, multiple scars, limping, or difficulty walking. Neglect. Most people don’t go so far as to actually lay hands on their dog to hurt them. But what happens with far too many owners is just as bad: they neglect the needs of their dog. Signs of neglect include injuries or illnesses that linger untreated, poor living conditions.

Fighting cruelty Parents and educators should teach children how to safely and humanely interact with animals at an early age, as well as how they can tell if an animal is being harmed and what to do about it. You can help spread the word by utilizing your own community to do so. For instance, you can share messages about proper treatment of animals on your social networks or offer to teach a class at your local elementary school or even pre-school. Beyond this, people need to stand up for what they believe in when they witness animal cruelty and take a stand by reporting the behaviour. The more often that abusive individuals are punished, the less likely others are to do the same thing.

Do animals have a right. A right to stand up and say we are wrong
Do animals have a right? A right to stand up and say we are wrong? A right to have a voice? Some say they do, for the way they are treated in factories are wrong. there is no such thing as a farm now. And if they tell you there is, they are liars.

Non sustainable activities affecting wildlife are :
Urbanization Deforestation Land pollution Slaughtering Smuggling poaching

Importance of species Most species in tropical forests are animals and most of these animals are invertebrates, particularly insects. Vertebrates are much less diverse, but dominate some key ecological roles. Almost all plants in tropical lowland forests are pollinated by animals, with bees, followed by beetles and flies, most important. Most seeds are also dispersed by animals, except in the upper canopy, with birds, fruit bats, primates, and a variety of terrestrial mammals most important. Maximum routine movement distances for both pollen and seeds are most often in the range 100–1000 m. Seeds are predated before dispersal by monkeys, squirrels, birds, and insects and after dispersal by rodents, birds, ants, and other insects.
