you guys are silly. heres some advice for you, pull your head out from that book, pack a backpack, and go live in that ecosystem. then come back to me and lets talk about animal survival.

many of the changes may be "unnatural" in the sense that we, a species with a remarkably different capabilities created things that the earth would otherwise not create if it was not for our intelligence. these changes may be regressive in the temporary. but they are changes, and they are drastic. only the strong survive, and the ecosystem will change

too bad we, as a species, are dependent on the natural balance we're destroying.

You make no fucking sense.

Learn your native language before you start posting.

And there is nothing in this world that gives man the right to push animals out of their natural habitat, absolutely nothing.


what if the animal is extinct? best to keep it alive and safe from death than let it die imo.

Even still a zoo is so much better than a slaughter house so those elephants and monkeys should be happy people developed a taste for pig and cow instead of them.

But, in a perfect world I would play with all the wild animals in a vast forest of wonders :D except for cows I eat them :]


I fucking laughed, hahaha. (I'm not mad or anything, just thought it was funny)

yes, and eventually, we will either move to another planet or reduce greatly in numbers because of w/e remaining fuel that may be left.

its a regression, absolutely, and the abomination of the greatest technology ever conceived, ecosystems. but it is what it is.

Would you rather see an animal Extinct than be in a zoo ?

Honestly how many "sick/motherless" animals do you see coming into zoos?

Do you think every animal in a zoo is taken out of its natural habitat? might be true if you think maybe a bear or lions natural habitat is the circus or a chimpanzees natural habitat is an unfit owners house with a cage to sleep in.

how bad do zoos actually look now that you think about it?


Yawn

idiots thinking unethical need to try to respond to this with your wrong opinion

the only possible argument you could have is some third or fourth world country having a zoo..
