People also shouldn't be kept in captivity.
- pbhjpbhj 11y agoI disagree. People who pose a significant threat to wider society should be incarcerated IMO, either for safety or punishment purposes. Locking up animals that have caused no significant harm seems wrong unless there is some other reason, eg food production. Personally I'm fine morally with eating non factory-farmed meat; keeping a massive creature locked up just to use as part of a show to me is morally objectionable. Zoos seem terrible places on the whole; safari parks are acceptable to me though. I remember with great sadness my first visit to a zoo (in the UK, as an adult) seeing a lion in a tiny cage pacing up and down.
