ABSTRACT
This paper addresses the opposing argument revolving around taming and the domestication of animals. I will challenge that taming a ?wild? animals is not a choice that we as humans made but rather a biological occurrence within nature. I will also focus on the importance of Zoo?s in our culture. The relevant information for this paper came from books, newspapers, journals and zoo reports.
