@veggiewarriors I agree it is sad to see animals in captivity, but sadly many types of animals now face extinction for many reasons including our intervention in their natural habitat such as cutting down the rain forest. A lot of zoos now support conservation charities,but more importantly breeding programms to keep species alive. Without these breeding pacts in zoos it is a sad truth now that many animals would be dying out of exitence all together.
That's a silly way of looking at things. If the wild habitat has problems, then work on making the WILDERNESS safer. Channel your funds into protecting parks and pressing for stricter legistation instead so there wouldn't be a need for zoos. Zoos only work for one goal: PROFIT not conservation.
That's an excuse zoos use to brainwash the masses. There are protected reserves in Africa which are doing spectacular work in protecting these creatures and the main reason they are not able to do more is because they don't get funding.
If people REALLY wanted to protect animals selflessly, the billions that are invested in constructing zoos and breeding programs would produce miracles if diverted to national parks and outreach programs to change mindsets.

You are altering an animal's natural behavior, severing its relationship with Nature which honed its skills and made the animal what it is.
Is it worth it? This is a recipe for disaster and people like you are to blame for it.

its impossible to make the wilderness safe from poachers, and forrests being cleared.
it would literally cost billions, and even then the world is to big to keep watch

Chimpanzees and gorilla's are not animals, they're wild humans that never evolved like we did!
