范文1
I believe it is better for animals to live in the zoo. Zoos can protect endangered animals and help them stay safe. Many rare animals like Dudu live healthily in zoos.
Humans and animals should get along well. We need to care for them instead of hurting them. Zoos also help people learn more about wild animals and love nature.
As members of the School Environmental Club, we can tell others to protect animals. We can take part in some volunteer activities. Let’s work together to protect wild animals and build a better world.

I believe it is better for animals to live in the wild because zoos limit their freedom. Although zoos offer protection, natural habitats are far more important for their living.

As members of the School Environmental Club, we can organize campaigns to raise awareness of wildlife protection. We can also cut down on plastic use to help protect the habitats of wild animals. Let us respect all living things and protect our shared planet.
