>>37741882My favorite case of this is with Orcas.
Orcas are social animals with dynamic culture.
You literally cannot put a captive Orca into the ocean and just hope for the best. That would be like picking you up, and setting you free in China, as you are, bringing nothing with you. And not, like, Beijing China, we're talking bumfuck nowhere rural China. Maybe, at best, taking some peasant from the 1500's and dropping him in a Best Buy.
This applies double to any that were born in captivity; they literally do not even have a baseline of Orca culture to work with.
Getting the Orca shows dropped either means they get released into the wild to their certain death, or held in pens with nothing to do until they die.
Bonus points, the only reason anyone even gives half a fuck about Orcas is because of what Seaworld did. By removing them from the public eye, a powerful symbol of animals that are endangered that we like fades with them.
These retards have literally contributed more to the extinction of Orcas than helped them.
