You know, I could speak to and make a case for both sides of these issues. No question that zoos and marine mammal parks have funded research and created awareness that have bettered the lives of these animals in the wild. On the other hand, still remember watching alligator wrestling in Florida and hard to make a case how that helps those animals.
And there are definitely those that would like to ban all animal captivity, incl for food. I wonder if any of them have pet dogs or cats. Easy to forget these came from once wild animals.
But on the other hand, what case can we possibly make for keeping fish and corals except for our own selfish pleasures?...
