Episode Synopsis "Should Zoos Still Exist ?"
This is officially The Controversial 101's FIRST podcast! Welcome all new listeners! This week's topic is.....'Should Zoo's still Exist or Should they Close their Doors Permanently?' Firstly, a zoo is an area in which animals, especially wild animals, are kept so that people can go and look at them or study them. Dublin Zoo first opened its doors in 1831, making it the fourth oldest zoo in the world. Although some may regard this as impressive, not everyone can appreciate this fact or what goes on within the walls of the zoo. Within this episode we discuss points for, and against zoos by sharing two very different experiences. Our wonderful guest speaker this week is... 'Jodi Mejury' from Co. Down. Let us know your stance on zoos, or if you have any controversial topics you would like to see me discuss- email Gráinne at [email protected]. Also, tag us in your photos on Instagram @TheControversial101! Let us see a glimpse of your zoo experiences, whether they may be good or bad! Here at The Controversial 101 we LOVE to receive feedback. Let me know what you liked and disliked about this week's episode via email or Instagram DM. Hope you enjoy our first episode, and make sure to tune in weekly for more controversial topics! Remember folks, everyone's opinion is welcome here at The Controversial 101.
