I have no problem with that argument, conservation has its place, and animals in captivity often live longer and many appear to not be suffering. If done properly, i think there is a place for captive animals. I do not profess to have any expertise in animal welfare, I was just mentioning the worst example I have witnessed.There is another side of the argument. Polar Bears are on the endangered spices list and are being hunted to extinction. Is it better to try and keep the species going by breeding some in captivity, or just let them fade away into extinction and just become another great animal that once walked this earth.
