Animal captivity is a huge problem and it’s only getting worse, animals are not for humans entertainment. These animals are spending hours training on tricks for the human eye, they are tired and being used. All these animals know is the small area they are kept in. Everyday they are neglected and brainwashed into thinking that this is what life intended for them, but it doesn’t have to be that way. Animal captivity creates shorter life spans for these innocent animals. That is caused by the horrible stress and pressure they experience everyday. These animals go through serve stress and neglect as none of it is for the animals best interest. These places do not care about the animals at all, all they want is money. Zoos make millions off animals, us humans are contributing to that. Zoos CANNOT provide sufficient space for these animals, these animals are taken from there habitat than can provide what they need to have a long healthy, happy life. All these programs and places may seem like a family friendly experience but in reality all you are doing is normalizing animals being held captive. Don’t contribute to animal cruelty, be the change these animals desperately need. They are counting on us.
