The truth about captivity
The truth about captivity
More than 1 million wild animals are currently held in captivity worldwide.
Zoos, aquariums, roadside parks, and exotic animal collectors operate with minimal oversight in many regions.
Captivity isolates, stresses, and mentally breaks wild animals — leading to self-harm, aggression, and premature death.
Why conservation is a lie
Why conservation is a lie
Zoos and aquariums claim they are saving species, but most captive breeding programs are designed for our entertainment, not for true conservation.
Because captive-born animals lose critical survival instincts, releasing them is usually impossible.
As a result, less than 5% of animals born in zoos are ever released into the wild.
What captivity does to wild animals
What captivity does to wild animals
Wild animals in captivity often develop "zoochosis" — pacing, rocking, and self-harm caused by stress.
Many animals in captivity suffer shortened lifespans compared to their wild counterparts.
No enclosure, no matter how large, can replace the physical and mental challenges of life in the wild.
The myth of the 'Educational Experience'
The myth of the 'Educational Experience'
Zoos claim to educate the public.
In reality, they teach that animals belong behind glass — not in the wild.
Real education doesn't come from staring at suffering — it comes from understanding, protecting, and respecting animals in their natural homes.
The psychology of looking away
The psychology of looking away
In the 1960s, the Stanley Milgram Experiment showed normal people will accept cruelty when it's sanctioned by an authority figure.
Zoos, aquariums, and entertainment venues exploit the same psychology — they normalize suffering until no one questions it.
We are taught to see cages as normal—as long as animals are the ones inside them.
But if these cages held humans, no one would accept it.
Changing the species doesn't make it any less wrong.
