It doesn’t take an evolutionary biologist to put together that animals would rather not die.

The particular zoo I’m thinking off has private sections of the habitats that only zookeepers can get to. Please step down of your moral high horse.

I just dont think survival justifies keeping them in captivity. Why would it? What dies that gain the species?

Also most animals in Zoos arent even endangered, so maybe stop defending keeping animals as attractions, that was already weird when we were doing that with humans ...
