Rione was asked to write an argument for or against animals being taken from their natural environment. After reading 'My Struggle with a Tiger' by Charles Jamrach and an article about the "Pet Kingdom" at Harrods Department in London, he wrote this:

I believe that wild animals should be kept in their natural environment because if they're kept in an unknown place that they haven't been before, they will start to be aggressive towards each other. I know this because of the quote, "it was only now he released the boy. His jaws opened and his tongue protruded about 7 meters." This evidence suggests that tigers are stressed when they come out of their natural habitats.

It is truly terrible that lovely, exotic and beautiful tigers are treated this way for unnecessary things. For example, for making fur-coats, clothing and making money. The Chief Executive of The Dogs Trust said, "a pet shop is not an appropriate environment in which to sell puppies and kittens."

This is why people should be against taking tigers, or any animal out of their natural environment. Also, most animals in this world are becoming extinct and we need to stop this but only with YOUR help. I want to stop animals being taken from their natural environment by either raising money or protesting about the tragic things that are happening to all animals in the world.
