If you read carefully, you’ll notice I never expressed that the animals need help. I said they shouldn’t be held captive. It is more an indictment of the human than sympathy for the animal. Humans are mega entitled to just do whatever they want with animals. Humans suck.
Yes excellent indictmen on humanst here: Humans save species by keeping the remaining few safe, and also socially comfortable with a supply of puppies.
Let’s be clear, they aren’t saving anything by doing this. This is not conservation. They aren’t breeding or reintroducing these particular animals to the wild after raising them in captivity. They have been extracted from the ecosystem. They are now pets. I wouldn’t be so quick to pat humanity on the back when they are the proximate cause for there being a “remaining few.”
Why do you think these animals need help in the first place?
