  1. Wild animals weren't designed to be caged, and taught to perform tricks for us. Go on a safari if you wanna see them, but they shouldn't be in human captivity unless they need medical attention, and can't survive without it.

  2. The really sad aspect is that people who actually care about the animals are dealing with poverty. It isn't about not wanting to give them more, it's the despicable fact that those who are doing well rescuing monopolize the industry.
    So if someone who really cares, who is good with animals doesn't fit in their " click" they are ostracized and not allowed.
    The animals are taken from them only because overbearing humans have more money to care for them. It doesn't make them better handlers or better at caring for animals. It just says that " power" and the ability to take funding from well meaning animal lovers keeps them in control. You can take what you want from the people but you have no real love for the creatures. You just have money, funding that gives power to take.
    It's despicable.
    Animals thrive on love, even jungle cats.
    They don't need to be taken, they need funding for those that are caring for them. Poverty is the restriction. Not love or kindness.
    Lack of funding for responsible animal lovers doesn't warrant the animals being taken. It's actually more abusive taking animals from what is familiar to them.
