Is zoo life really bad for elephants? Are they really healthier when they walk around free? People talk about these questions for years.
Now researchers(研究者)give scientific evidence(证据)that elephants who walk around free are healthier and live longer than those in zoos. This finding answers a lot of questions about the health of elephants, and it might also bring about some changes in the world's zoos.
The Ros Club and a group of researchers studied the lifestyle of more than 4,500 elephants. And they find these elephants in the zoo can get illness easily, so they say that being born into a zoo, being moved between zoos, and the possible loss of their mothers, all put the animals at special risk.
They made the study in a European zoo, and the elephants used in this study are from two places, the Amboseli National Park in Kenya and the Myanma Timber Enterprise.
Until these animals' problems can be solved, the researchers also call for an end to get elephants from their native countries, and they say that the zoos should be strict in feeding elephants. They should make sure there is no harm when they let people watch them.
