The Wildlife Conservation and Protection Act

The Issue

What if the places we trust to protect animals are actually some of the biggest contributors to their suffering? Zoos are often a facade, trusted to be safe and educational spaces, yet hundreds of thousands of animals endure unjust treatment in unnatural conditions hidden from public view. From feeding live animals to predators to psychological distress, dead decomposing animals in cages, and animal trafficking, this issue is often overlooked by governments and legal systems, which fail to address it. This petition calls for a law that will: 

  • Require all zoos to undergo regular wellness inspections.
  • Ensure animals live in environments suited to their natural needs, eat properly, and receive care that meets their requirements. 
  • Ban harmful activities such as forced performances and unsafe interactions, including feeding and petting animals.
  • Holding zoos accountable through strict fines and, when necessary, returning animals to their natural environments.

Every animal deserves safety, freedom, and care. They suffer in silence every day, but together, we can be their voice. Sign up today and help give them the secure and loving life they deserve.
