Is this your personal opinion or the sad acknowledgement of humanity's negative impact on all non-human animals on this planet?

  Well I suppose it's both. However I would say we're setting up for a very large negative impact on most animals on the planet, including humans. Your post was flagged (not by me) so I can't go back for exact context, but I do agree with you, zoos are pretty messed up. I feel like seeing wildlife, even in non-native habitats, may help encourage people to act to conserve that wildlife. Seeing a creature in real life is different than in a video. Edit: I went back and looked at your replies to other people. I will have to think about this more.

    Oh, I didn't see it got flagged... Breaks my heart every time to see this happen when someone gives a voice to the voiceless. Then again, I would have disagreed with myself only 3 years ago, before I took some time to inform myself about ethics, especially in regard to non-human animals. Wish I'd have done it sooner...
