A zoo is a place where animals are kept in enclosures, cared for, presented

to the public, and occasionally bred for conservation purposes. The word
"zoological garden" refers to the study of animals through zoology.
Today, zoos provide four primary functions. Conservation, research,
education, and enjoyment are the four pillars. Animals are being bred in
captivity to prevent extinction. Zoos also seek to protect animals in their
natural habitats in the wild.
An animal sanctuary is a place where animals can dwell and be cared for
for the rest of their lives. An animal sanctuary, according to Pattrice Jones,
is "a safe-enough environment or relationship within the continual perils
that threaten everyone".

Note:
A habitat is described in ecology as a natural environment that can support the
survival and reproduction of a species throughout the year or for a limited
period of time. Abiotic and biotic components, as well as other resources that
support life, make up such environments.
A microhabitat is a miniature ecosystem that differs just slightly from its
surroundings. Unique species that are not found in the larger habitat can be
found in these habitats. A microhabitat can be anything from a small pool of
water to the bottom of a rock to a rotting log.
There are two types of habitat- aquatic habitat and terrestrial habitat
