The thing people don't get is that if something is raised in captivity, they do not possess the skills necessary to survive in the wild. And you can mess up the ecosystem if you introduce the wrong species, causing more harm to those they wish to 'save'. I know the video says the same thing, but I feel it needs to be repeated. And when you tell them this, they often get pissed and refuse take your advice.
Plenty of animals that are living the free and natural life would probably have moments they would prefer to be in a vet supervised pampered zoo, a bit like the line up doing the bar/KFC circuit for obesity infecting the US etc. Because those last few moments when becoming prey, experiencing drought, overpopulation, underpopulation, weather events, epidemics, pathogens etc. just don't cut it for some as being fun.
Case in point - look into the animal abuse complaints against PETA. They did some pretty greusom and painful things to animals and much of it so they could film it and then claim that that was the industry standard for doing things and that therefore all animal products are harvested via murder.
These folks are guided by emotion and void of logic. If they would take a portion of the time they spend protesting to learn a thing or two about the animals they claim to care about, then everyone would be a lot better off, especially the animals.
That's why you don't see biologists being activists... I find it hilarious how from all the subjects we have the least amount of vegans and crazy animal lovers... Of course I can only talk from my university but still, I find it hilarious in a way that people who actually dedicate their lives to save the environment and actually are competent are the ones that whould be considered evil by activists that think they do the same thing... Btw we also have the highest percentage of goths, interpret it how you will (from all age groups)
A lot of the activist idiots have a distorted view of nature, they believe in the "disney carton" version of nature and that all the creatures live in peace together.
deer populations are at an all-time high in recent years, primarily due to humans: wolves, bears, and cougars are mostly gone because of us. Occasionally, in certain areas, deer populations reach unsustainable levels and need intervention. On Angel Island, deer populations had gotten out of control, so the department of fish and wildlife was going to either shoot the excess or introduce predators. Activists successfully opposed them, and the deer were live trapped instead. After relocation nearly all the deer quickly died. The project was expensive, time consuming, and wound up causing more stress and harm to the deer than just shooting them would have. The story is much longer than this and included the deer population on the island starving and rebounding multiple times, public hearings in which introduction of coyotes was opposed, "The majority of speakers were quite emotional and objected to both shooting and coyotes. Some seemed to ignore the fact that predation occurs naturally."
Same in my country. The deer, wild horses etc. were in an aerea where they couldn't get out and there were too many of them. First all vegetation disappeared, then the deer were starving but animal activists didn't want to have them shot. Another example is about a predator. A few years ago the wolf came back in our country (after our ancestors had them all killed in the 19th century). But our country has not a lot of nature, in fact it is actually just like a very large parc in a city. There is no place here for a wolf. The chance they meet people is very large and people try to get them on their selfies and make them tame by feeding them. The wolves multiply rapidly and have killed a lot of farm animals: sheep. This year alone they also have bitten 2 kids and killed at least 2 dogs. People are told not to go to the forests where the wolves are. But it is the only nature people can go! But the animal lovers don't care. The wolf is a holy animal to them and it once was here so it belongs here, according to them. No, it doesn't! Most of these people live in the cities and will never have an encounter with a wolfe but here in the countryside it is different and people are opposed to letting the wolf roam around.
I live where there are more black bears than people. This used to be farming area, but people left, and the mostly clear cut land full of corn fields have grown up into forests and over half of houses are grown up as well. Bears come into town a lot because well meaning morons feed them. But they CLAIM "The poor bears are starving because they don't have habitat. Humans stole it and cut down the trees". Moron, look out the window. We have more forest now than when this was Native land!!! We have more forest than 10 years ago! Are people so brainwashed they can't believe their lying eyes??
Imagine you're living contently with scheduled food, family, wives, children, assured safety, but some random strangers force you to walk into a jungle full of predators without any skill to survive alone.
This is what happened to a killer whale that was in a movie once. After the movie they wanted to free the whale. But when they did it didnt last long and kind of was heard crying following boats in its last days.
@@Truthorfib That's horrible. Sometimes I wonder if these "rescuers" actually hate animals, or want to see animals suffer and die slowly, but mask their evil intentions by pretending to be kind.
@@Ashireiko_Tatsumi Many (though not all) do: read PETA's full spiel for example. Typically the most obnoxiously loud activists are the most mentally unstable and unhinged.
Some animal rights activists seem to be legitimate sociopaths like at some point after being told you killed an animal and proclaiming that you don’t feel regret because you meant well (supposedly) then shift blame to others, you have to wonder if it’s deliberate sadism. If I was told I caused the slow, painful death of an innocent animal, I would never attempt that shit EVER again. But these narcissists don’t care and keep doing it again and again even after addressing their murders.
Activists never intend to hurt animals, unlike anybody who traps them in labs, farms, and zoos/circuses. Accidents may happen but turning an animal into a commodity is premeditated and vile.
@@sachinraghavan4556 Two sides of the same coin. Activists still do damage "unintentionally" or not. "The road to hell is paved with good intentions." My favorite are the ones who stop people from eliminating invasive species because "those animals have a right to live too!!!" But being the typical room temperature I.Q. people they tend to be fail to realize those animals MUST be purged to save the rest of the ecosystem.

It would have been even worse with the minks if they had managed to survive. They are one of the few animals that hunt and kill for fun. Imagine what releasing even dozens of them into an area they aren’t native to would do to the local fauna.
@@kwhufc5769 lol well um humans are one of the other few animals that hunt and kill for fun … which is probably why we keep cats, which is another animal in that group, as pets…

"Be careful of charity and kindness, lest you do more harm with open hands than with a clenched fist." (Quote from Star Wars knights of the Old Republic 2) And it doesn’t say “don’t do charity” It’s cautioning against shortsighted charity and unintended consequences.

@@happyjohn354 bottled water is worse. Better to send a way to petrify local water, because just sending an entire shipment of water won’t even last them a day. It’s not logistically feasible to send food and water, and way more beneficial to help setup local production of local needs. And it shouldn’t be what we think they need, but instead what they actually need. “Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime”
Charity is more for the immediate emotional reward of thinking you're a good person and better than your peers, it never seems to actually be led by a desire to help. "Give a man a fish, you feed him for a day, teach a man to fish, you feed him for a lifetime". Recipients of these mass charities need lasting solutions.

Animal rights activists: You shouldn't treat an animal like a king, rather throw it out in the wilderness where it has to learn to fend for itself once more all on it's own and likely become food for other animals. But I don't care, I just saved an animal.
Animal rights activists: I just a took a tiger to the an a random african savannah, it will probably die of dehydration and or starve becos it sticks out like a sore thumb but what ever natures cruel
@@Closse Basically, animal activists are so focus on the "saving" aspect that they didn't bother to think about what will happen next after releasing the unprepared animals They just pat themselves on the back and go home. Not knowing that they gave those "rescued" animals a death sentence
@@Closse yea the original comment made me remember of a very old news of activists breaking in a lab and release mice in their cages They also accidentally spilled chemicals which killed the mice. The mice were there to test experimental medicine for mental illness
Remember when some grocery stores had lobsters in a tank that were meant for cooking? Well there was an actual news story from when I was a kid about some animals rights activists stealing all of the lobsters from one of those tanks and dumping them into the river. There were a few problems about that. 1. They're saltwater lobsters meaning they can't survive the river. 2. They were farm bred in California where their tanks had to be regulated and we lived in the Midwest. So they died almost immediately because the river is COLD!! 3. Even if by some miracle any one of those lobsters survived, none of their natural diet is in the river. No clams, no crabs, and no sea fish. So it'll end up starving. Yeah needless to say there were a bunch of lobster corpses in our river. Yeah this was one of my first indicators that you probably shouldn't let something free or "rescue" an animal without thinking about it or researching it.
It's a good thing that all lobsters are saltwater too. If they were capable of surviving in freshwater and in that river, then there is the possibility that they could've become invasive and displace native species of crawdads.
Some activists don't really care about their cause, they just want an excuse to not get a real job. They can't have civil protests, because then someone might ask them questions about the cause, which they can't answer.
yep also if look at pretty much all of those types of activists they tend to favor the most destructive forms of protest and ideologies to support for example ones that get in the way of efforts to get rid of invasive animals from areas they aren't supposed to be or similar idiotic and often extreme ones and then their is the various none animal related types as well
Activists tend to act first and not even think of the consequences later so invading a disease studies lab and releasing test animals is not out of the realm of possibilities.
@@gatlank6080 They only have those diseases because humans infect them to begin with. Animals don't want to be experimented on. Activists also have no way of giving them medical care.
Saving animals is cool, but I only support it if its trying to save a species on the verge of extinction, if its trying to save a singular group of animals simply because its "cruel" Its meaningless and stupid, especially in the line of important work.
It's better to force Humans to treat animals humanely, than to take animals out of familiar settings, and drop them off in the wild. No, they don't have special instincts that kick in that allow them to survive in hostile environments. They're used to being handed food, not fighting for it.
These people don't think, they _feel._ Releasing animals _feels good_ and to those people, *that's all that matters!* Thinking, especially about consequences, DOESN'T feel good.
It depends entirely on how the captive animal is treated, but if they're abused or feel psychological discomfort in captivity, they're better off taking a chance in the wild than in the hands of abusive animals.
This is the equivalent of aliens kidnapping someone from their bed in the city taking them from their infants and tossing them in the middle of the Amazon or Savannah.
Instead of storming laboratories, farms and zoos, why don't people demonstrate for laws and procedures to protect wild animals and their natural habitat?
Yes, we are supposed to work hard to preserve wildlife. The slightest mistake has serious long-term damage, so it is better for the experts to do the work and we, the public, to pressure the government for laws and procedures, and not to be carried away by our feelings. @@TheBayzent
I totally understand where animal activists are coming from but the fact that they are more concerned with the optics of what they are doing instead of thinking about the consequences of their actions makes me really, really dislike them. And I'm pretty sure that most people agree. ✌🇨🇦😡
i dont cuz they usually target animals bred for captivity or have been born in captitvity, total lack of awareness and logic, its as you said, its all about how it looks, fuck logistics.
It's quite sickening, that we feel the need to inflict unimaginable cruelty on animals and jail people who try to spare their suffering. They don't want to be cut open or have toxins injected into them. People in history justified treating humans awfully from slavery to genocide to human experimentation, claiming that they were necessary and that people couldn't live without it. They couldn't be more wrong. Modern alternatives to experimentation have been developed (isolated tissues and computer simulations) so we're morally obligated to adopt them, we can even sooner do consensual and non lethal human trials, can't call ourselves morally correct if we condemn vulnerable innocents to horrific abuse.
Rescued wildlife is thoroughly assessed first before granted release into the wild, one assessment done is observing whether or not the animal is aggressive. Aggressive individuals more or less granted release as soon as they are medically cleared. Docile ones, particularly those under human care for a longest time, are not recommended for release and put into care as they are deemed will not survive in the wild. I’m a wildlife researcher who specializes in herpetology and with all honesty, I hate these effing animal rights activists since most of them don’t even know their cause. Lastly, if animal rights activists really wanted to stop animal testing, they themselves volunteer to research labs as replacement test subjects. However, that would be complicated so you have to stick with rats as they breed quick and a lot.
I rescue animals like cats, dogs, parrots, terrapins and even a crow. Birds and reptiles that I rescued have some injury in their limb or wing that I don't have confidence for them free them. I gave them the best vet care out of my pocket yet I had a bleeding heart Karen argue with me that I'm a horrible person for letting injured animals be in captivity. I got so angry I have to release my aggressive dogs in my property. I hate these stupid animal rights activists.
A human who was not taught wilderness survival skills would also die if suddenly tossed into the wild with no preparation. This is completely stupid to do to animals who have far less of a chance.
That's what most people forget. Human can be considered as "animal in captivity". We, as individual, don't know how to be self suficient. Farmers make our food ingredients, tailors make our clothes, builder build our stuffs. Only those who learn how to camp outside or work in wilderness know how to be self sufficient-ish. Hell, throw me outside and I'll die in 1-2 days from food poisoning since I don't know what's safe to eat.

Not for bragging rights. They really just do this to feel good about themselves. They don't think with their brains. They think with their emotions like a spoiled child.
Activists aren't responsible for what happens to animals after they're rescued. Living in the wild is obviously a pain, but nothing compared to being abused in a lab or factory farm.
@@TheBayzent That's just your lack of compassion talking. Think about this, if we actually wanted attention we simply wouldn't be doing any of this, we'd be abusing animals like everybody else and gaining attention and money off of normalized industries that do so. Sparing them from the misery of human captivity, commodification, and exploitation has nothing to do with virtue signaling and everything to do with seeing intrinsic value in animals who are sentient individuals who don't want to suffer or be killed for our selfish gain. Liberationists risk their freedom and safety sparing them from suffering. Activists frequently get harassed and mocked for what they support, and they have opposers who shame them simply for emphasizing the negative and cruel aspects of zoos, farms, labs, and the like. In the context of the video I agree releasing a captive carnivore like a penguin was reckless, especially if they weren't msitreated, but I refer to the actions of the movement in general and how most of the rescued ones are artificially bred for generations physically abused in the settings I mentioned. The attention they get is largely negative and depressing, and something we'd rather not live with. I do wonder how much resentment you'd feel towards them if you were one of these animal victims, people never understand the severity of an individual's robbed freedom till it happens to them.
Someone cut open a bunch of cages at the Anchorage Zoo with the net result being an endangered bird (kept in the zoo due to crippled wing) getting trampled to death by yaks. Luckily the tigers had just been fed, so they just took a nap on the nearby road.
Good Lord!-I didn’t believe this at first-what idiot would turn a tiger loose on an unsuspecting community?-but after doing a search on the Internet I found a CNN report dated Sept. 22, 2000, about this incident. According to CNN, only one of the three Siberian tigers left its cage, was “darted” (tranquilized) and returned; the other two stayed inside. And a good thing, too! Back in 2007, three young men (ages 17, 19, and 23) were taunting and throwing things at a Siberian tiger at the San Francisco Zoo (after closing time, when few people were around). The angry tiger leaped up from her pit and escaped over the top, then attacked the three men, killing one and badly mauling the other two. (There’s an entry in Wikipedia about this, “San Francisco Zoo tiger attacks.”) According to reports I read at the time, Siberian tigers are notoriously aggressive- fierce, intensely-focused hunters-even more than the Bengal tigers usually displayed in zoos. Releasing a Siberian tiger into an area containing human adults would be bad enough; releasing one into an area with playgrounds full of children-not to mention dogs, cats, and other domestic animals-would be unspeakably careless, or perhaps inhumanly heartless.
@@sachinraghavan4556 I love how you blame the animals and not the idiots who released them with no concern for the animals' actual wellbeing. And I don't know if you realize this, but many large carnivores are in danger of extinction. Mostly because of humans transforming their hunting grounds into farmland and then killing the predators for going after livestock instead of their usual prey. Proper zoos are often part of carefully managed breeding programs to preserve genetic diversity. And small carnivores? The tasmanian devil is on the way to extinction in the wild because of a disease.
@@sachinraghavan4556 “…[A]ctivists can't control animal behavior.”-Quite true, and that’s the whole point of this video, and of the Comment by amberg3895. Activists who release captive animals without caring about the impact of that action on the local environment, or on the animals that they believe that they are “freeing,” are behaving irresponsibly, putting at risk the environment, its human occupants, other animals, and the released animals themselves. (Your other comment-“Carnivores shouldn’t be kept in captivity”-is much too broad and general an opinion to be addressed in this context.)
@@Carneades2012 Most activists these days (almost exclusively in ‘First World’ countries) are thoughtless idiots who only do what they do to make themselves feel better. They genuinely don’t care if today’s ‘solution’ becomes tomorrow’s problem, because 99% are guided wholly by emotion and are barely capable of logical thinking.
Some students in my university for animal behavior/zoology were animal activists. The university offered some on campus jobs like husbandry of the lab animals and they wanted to 'infiltrate' to record and make public the animal's condition..... needless to say, being hounded for the most minute detail of care for every individual animal along side the animal welfare courses made it so they changed their tune.

"Let's take an animal from its safe environment it was born and raised in, and place it in an unfamiliar environment they have no idea how to survive in. We're the good guys." - 'Animal Rights Activists'
It never ceases to amaze me that these so-called "do-gooders" always seem to know absolutely nothing about the animals they try to help. Didn't any of them have pets as a kid? I learned when I was like six that you never release an animal that spent its whole life raised in captivity. My friend had a rabbit that he released when he didn't want to take care of it anymore, and my dad explained to me that if I ever did that with mine, a fox or coyote would probably get it in two seconds, and that was probably what happened to my friend's.
The first lab that I worked at, a behavioral neuroscience lab at Iowa University, there was an animal rights attack on the lab shortly before I arrived. They wanted to be _really_ sure that I wasn't an infiltrator of some kind, so they made me do a transcardial perfusion on a rat on my first day. If you don't know what that is, don't look it up, just know it would turn you green. As I worked there, it became _very_ clear that these animals would never survive outside of our care. They were literally born in our lab and never ate anything we didn't drop in front of them. Many were modified after birth in order to study the development of learning mechanisms in the hopes of understanding the same in humans, and all of them would be fit with permanent headgear - an electrode array attached directly to their skulls. Left to their own devices, they would have had all sorts of infections and likely kill themselves trying to get the thing off. There would be _zero_ point to removing them from the lab. Many of the people I worked with there also owned pets who were former experimental animals. The only thing you could accomplish by "freeing" the animals is denying humans the treatments that come out of the understanding we were seeking. While we weren't studying a particular disease, we were making real steps toward understanding how and when healthy mammals develop the connections that allow them to learn different types of information about the world they live in - and no, it's much more complicated than having one area or type of neuron that learns, there are multiple anatomically separate mechanisms, each able to find different types of correlations and associations. It's not at all difficult to imagine that our research would enable the development of new treatments for developmental learning disorders in humans whose cases are currently hopeless. To give those humans a chance is more than worth the cost in rats who would never have been born or survived without us anyway.
i'm potentially one of those people, I have ADD but as my sister is a doctor she has theorized that simply taking new medication has also helped to restore neural pathways. (as i maintained more orderly behaviour even when not taking the medication)
@@MASTEROFEVIL There were multiple experiments going on. The two I remember most clearly were: a developmental study where the rats were implanted with electrodes that could be used to stimulate their medial geniculate nucleus (MGN). By doing simple blink conditioning using only the MGN stim as a stimulus, we were able to determine when its connections to the cerebellum came online in the rat's development. The cerebellum learns all behaviors where the stimulus and response overlap in time, with other various constraints. The other was a cross-modal transfer study in rats with lesions in a medial temporal lobe area whose name escapes me at the moment. Cross-modal transfer is the phenomenon of generalizing a conditioned response to multiple stimuli of different sensory modalities. For example, the rat is first trained to respond to a light, then we later change it to a sound, and they pick it up much faster. It's turning a very specific stimulus into something abstract, from "the light goes on, then I respond" to _"something happens,_ then I respond". But we were able to show that, without this one area of its brain, it can't make that connection, as if they are learning a completely new task. I thought this one was really neat. A very elegant way to examine how abstract ideas form that is usually impossible in a behavioral setting.
"Activists": "We gotta save that chicken!" Penguin: How droll. Garcon? Might we have caviar with our fish this evening? Yes, and sprinkled with ice like I like it....hey put me down you ruffians, security, SECURITY! "Activists": BE FREE SEA CHICKEN!
I really dislike activists. They are fueled purely by emotion, devoid of logic. But the worst part is that emotion is often not truly righteous, but is posturing for social recognition.
This proves why research is important, and is why I hate the fact that fictional works often portray just releasing the captive animals with no strategy to help them adapt to the changes as a purely good thing both because of the animals dying from lack of ability to survive outside the environments they grew up in and because of the risk to animals living in the wild naturally dying off due to invasive species.
I have personal experience with animal rights activists. My family for 4 generations have owned and operated in multiple mink ranches. For a long time they were very out of the way on the outskirts of the city However as more and more infrastructure and urban development occurred more people starting moving in residentially nearby (They chose to move right next to the mink ranch, and chose to have their houses built there). Immediately after they had moved in they started petitioning for the demolishing and removal of our mink ranch. On their website they literally lied about the state of the ranch and how it operated. They put pictures of mink ranches from third world countries showing them hanging in disgusting conditions. They claimed we would slaughter them alive and do many more terrible things. In reality they were put down using lethal injection in the most humane way possible and were kept well fed and were allowed to raise their own children. I also want to exclaim how viscious mink were. If they were let out of their enclosures to socialize (hypothetically we never actually did this) it would always immediately devolve into fighting to the death. They also often bite humans. In the end our family was forced to demolish the ranch after activists broke in and released over have they mink. (They all died from starvation on heat stroke ofc, it was 105 degrees outside at the time.) luckily my grandparents had a financial backup so they weren't completely screwed over.
Oh no we are. It's just that we stopped natural selection from cleaning out the gene pool and thus the breeders produce further detriments to society... Just stop saving people who do the silliest things and it'll sort itself out in a decade.
Think of the stupidest person you know. Half the population is stupider than that. Avverage intelligence is just that, average. There are some monumentally stupid people out there.
I always have to laugh when people are talking about whether there is also intelligent life on other planets in the universe. I think: what do you mean? Also?
They also seem to forget that HUMAN ARE ANIMALS SPECIFICALLY MAMMALS TOO! Why don’t they go out live in the wild like those penguins and see how long they will last without human technology especially PHONE! 😂
We will became animal food, but we are obligated sapient, so we will had a high survival rate if there is resources, but animals, they aren't even facultative intelligent, they will die even food is available.
The people who do this sort of thing don't actually care about animals. They care about themselves and how THEY feel. They are only doing this because they want to feel good about themselves.
A note on the dolphin/tuna issue. Part of the problem is the dolphins themselves. Fishing boats aren't necessarily *looking for groups of dolphins* they look for schools, which ATTRACT dolphins. Who are also attracted to fishing boats as they know the boats hunt fish. They ALSO know that the boats corral tuna and make it easier to catch their fill. They're know to actually herd fish into the nets for the boats, which is how they get caught. We can't untrain them, they train themselves. They're smart enough to understand its a big risk. The issue is how WE deal with it. I'm certain there's a way we can keep fishing with them but reduce the risk of harming them. They're almost as intelligent as us, surely we can figure out a way to commincate when its time for them to get clear of the nets
On man - people are stupid. Everyone needs to chill out! "Reality is unfortunately much more complicated" People in universities need to understand that
Another sad thing about those minks is if they were released and died during summer their pelts are pretty much worthless to fur traders. The valuable mink fur people pay so much for are their winter coats. When they transition from summer to winter coats the coats go from black to white and become softer and fluffier. It’s the winter pelts that hold value.

This reminds me of Rainbow Six, the novel that is. The overall theme was that of environmentalism, the examples are brought up several times too, from pipelines to the difficulties of political decision influencing to more outside perspectives like that of Popov's. The antagonists, the head being a CEO of a pharmaceutical company, wanted to save the world, and they would do that by releasing a modified Ebola strain to wipe out mankind. Obviously they fail but the ending is poetic, grimly so. They cleaned up their tracks after they realized their plan was stopped at the last minute, so any trial was sure to fail. So after they were hunted down to their Brazil installation, Clark forced them to undress and go "reconnect with nature." The kicker is that Clark recalls there's two types of people who get off of choppers. Those who storm into the brush, and those who watch as the chopper leaves, and everyone complicit in that plot was watching the chopper leave. I imagine many animals "rescued" from captivity did just that when their "rescuers" released them into the wild.
Being an animal activist should have some entrance test like being dumped in a random forest with nothing but clothes on you and survive there for a month so that they can understand how difficult it is to survive in the wild without knowing anything about basic survivial skills so that they think twice on doing the same thing on random animals they rescued
I work as an aquarist in France, I work especially with Gentoo and King penguins. These animals LOST their natural instincts... if you grab them and send them anywhere else they will DIE... -_-

The switch could have been flipped by an activist who didnt know what they were doing. That makes more sense than a business owner who would get thousands of years in prison (Patrick Wood Crusius got 90 life sentences without parole). And the ducks were probably not alive when they were removed from the belt. Imagine the chaos of putting live ducks on the belt and the belt moving. It would break the machine.
Animal rights activists that "free" animals like this, aren't doing it for the animal, they are doing it for themselves. It's just selfish self gratification.
The people in these situations cared more about the issue of animal ‘rights’ than they did about the animals themselves, because if they did actually care about the animals’ welfare they would’ve understood what releasing animals born in captivity would mean or what the stress of being removed would do to them. They talk about us educating ourselves, they should take their own advice.
I had an argument with a vegan animal rights activist once. He admitted that he never considered any consequence of his actions and even knowing what the result would be, he would rather see millions of animals die than have them live in captivity and didn't even care about the potential damage to the ecosystem his actions could cause. As long as he felt good by being the savior, the damage was irrelevant.
Death is better than living for a prolonged period of abuse or suffering. Think about it. Activists get involved in liberation when captive animals are abused.
Most animal activists that do the spontaneous things like steal animals to release them in the wild, or really any activist who does something spontaneous or disruptive, only do it because of how it makes them feel. They don't really care about the animals at all. And every single one of them have lived a privileged life. Almost all of them come from rich families and have never had a real job. Or at least not for very long. None of them can think critically or logically. And none of them care about the reprecussions of their actions.
I keep telling people that, do not free animals from zoo and do not feed wild animals and wild birds. Some people just don't understand that animals in zoo are not wild animal with the ability to survive the wild by themselves. And feeding wild animals and birds have more negatives than positives outcome.
Here in Brazil there are institutions specialized in training animals for wild reintroduction. Most of the animals are victims of poaching or illegal commerce. Much of the work is providing a safe place for recently captured animals to heal and reduce the stress they endured, just as much as retraining them to survive. Still, many animals just can't reajust, and they're sent to parks attached to natural reserves, or to certified zoos.
@@tanyabrown9839 that's the movie Free Willy. I also heard that. I talk about an animation movie called Free Jimmy, where an old circus elephant is used to smuggle Heroin trough Scandinavia.

People aren't taught to think nowadays. So they are quick to act before doing any thinking. And that brings us to why things are getting worse in the world.
10:20 So you're telling me that the animals rights activist, who thinks keeping animals in pens and cages away from their natural world is wrong and possibly criminal, has a tank to keep marine life captive? The hypocricy is strong with this one...
@@sachinraghavan4556 You do realise that nothing humans do is really unique, right? Farming? Ants do it, we're just better at it, and more varied in what we farm. Hell, some ants rear livestock too. Using animals of a different species as tools in a way that, objectively, horribly ruins the animal's life for your benefit? Parasites the world over have us beat, because that's literally all they do as a species, and none of them will feel even slightly bad about doing it. Hunting? We've built tools that make us the best at it, but it's not unique. Ours at least can kill quickly in the modern era- most prey don't get so lucky. Judging humanity as something beyond the animal kingdom is foolish. We are just another animal. Any grace given to a nonhuman species is a choice, not an obligation, and if the situation were reversed you should expect the same treatment from them. The only thing we have most of the animal kingdom beat on is that our cognition lets us turn around and justify silly ideas, like taking an animal bred in captivity for human benefit and setting it loose into the wild where it dies less than a week later, and concluding we did good by it. Or deciding that humanity is a disease or somehow uniquely evil because it's engaging in self-serving animal behaviour, that literally any other species with sufficient cognitive ability would also engage in.
@@sachinraghavan4556Bruh, Hypocrisy is literally human nature, there's no human on earth that isn't a hypocrite...

As for the last one, are we not allowed to have pets or something? I mean some pet owners are straight up idiots who know nothing about raising pets, but still, some pets literally help people both emotionally and psychologically! What you're pointing out is just reinforcing the videos point, people like you with oh so righteous cause only make things worse
“Freeing” animals like this is basically forcing them to play Survivor but more inhumane because animals can’t be told the rules and no one’s going to rescue them if they get hurt.
Imagine living a happy, comfortable life with 3-square meals a day, then some idiot with a savior complex comes along, kidnaps you and leaves you in the wilderness to fend for yourself
Keeping carnivores in captivity requires feeding them meat from factory farmed and slaughtered livestock, that's the big issue, when they could easily be hunting in the wild like they were meant to. Wild animals adapted to live in wild settings and shouldn't be in small captive enclosures, especially carnivores for the reason I mentioned.
The thing people don't get is that if something is raised in captivity, they do not possess the skills necessary to survive in the wild. And you can mess up the ecosystem if you introduce the wrong species, causing more harm to those they wish to 'save'. I know the video says the same thing, but I feel it needs to be repeated.
And when you tell them this, they often get pissed and refuse take your advice.
They truly do believe it's better to die in the wild than to stay "Imprisoned"
People are dumb as hell.
Plenty of animals that are living the free and natural life would probably have moments they would prefer to be in a vet supervised pampered zoo, a bit like the line up doing the bar/KFC circuit for obesity infecting the US etc.
Because those last few moments when becoming prey, experiencing drought, overpopulation, underpopulation, weather events, epidemics, pathogens etc. just don't cut it for some as being fun.
How smart or wise can they be if they have nothing better to do with their miserable lives
Case in point - look into the animal abuse complaints against PETA. They did some pretty greusom and painful things to animals and much of it so they could film it and then claim that that was the industry standard for doing things and that therefore all animal products are harvested via murder.
These folks are guided by emotion and void of logic. If they would take a portion of the time they spend protesting to learn a thing or two about the animals they claim to care about, then everyone would be a lot better off, especially the animals.
That's why you don't see biologists being activists... I find it hilarious how from all the subjects we have the least amount of vegans and crazy animal lovers... Of course I can only talk from my university but still, I find it hilarious in a way that people who actually dedicate their lives to save the environment and actually are competent are the ones that whould be considered evil by activists that think they do the same thing...

deer populations are at an all-time high in recent years, primarily due to humans: wolves, bears, and cougars are mostly gone because of us. Occasionally, in certain areas, deer populations reach unsustainable levels and need intervention. On Angel Island, deer populations had gotten out of control, so the department of fish and wildlife was going to either shoot the excess or introduce predators. Activists successfully opposed them, and the deer were live trapped instead. After relocation nearly all the deer quickly died. The project was expensive, time consuming, and wound up causing more stress and harm to the deer than just shooting them would have. The story is much longer than this and included the deer population on the island starving and rebounding multiple times, public hearings in which introduction of coyotes was opposed, "The majority of speakers were quite emotional and objected to
both shooting and coyotes. Some seemed to ignore the fact that predation occurs naturally."
Let's help the animals by starving them AND the animals that eat them. Nice.
Same in my country. The deer, wild horses etc. were in an aerea where they couldn't get out and there were too many of them. First all vegetation disappeared, then the deer were starving but animal activists didn't want to have them shot.
Another example is about a predator.
A few years ago the wolf came back in our country (after our ancestors had them all killed in the 19th century). But our country has not a lot of nature, in fact it is actually just like a very large parc in a city. There is no place here for a wolf. The chance they meet people is very large and people try to get them on their selfies and make them tame by feeding them. The wolves multiply rapidly and have killed a lot of farm animals: sheep. This year alone they also have bitten 2 kids and killed at least 2 dogs.
People are told not to go to the forests where the wolves are. But it is the only nature people can go!
But the animal lovers don't care. The wolf is a holy animal to them and it once was here so it belongs here, according to them. No, it doesn't! Most of these people live in the cities and will never have an encounter with a wolfe but here in the countryside it is different and people are opposed to letting the wolf roam around.
I live where there are more black bears than people. This used to be farming area, but people left, and the mostly clear cut land full of corn fields have grown up into forests and over half of houses are grown up as well. Bears come into town a lot because well meaning morons feed them. But they CLAIM "The poor bears are starving because they don't have habitat. Humans stole it and cut down the trees". Moron, look out the window. We have more forest now than when this was Native land!!! We have more forest than 10 years ago! Are people so brainwashed they can't believe their lying eyes??

If I was told I caused the slow, painful death of an innocent animal, I would never attempt that shit EVER again. But these narcissists don’t care and keep doing it again and again even after addressing their murders.

Well there was an actual news story from when I was a kid about some animals rights activists stealing all of the lobsters from one of those tanks and dumping them into the river.
There were a few problems about that.
1. They're saltwater lobsters meaning they can't survive the river.
2. They were farm bred in California where their tanks had to be regulated and we lived in the Midwest. So they died almost immediately because the river is COLD!!
3. Even if by some miracle any one of those lobsters survived, none of their natural diet is in the river. No clams, no crabs, and no sea fish. So it'll end up starving.
Yeah needless to say there were a bunch of lobster corpses in our river.
Yeah this was one of my first indicators that you probably shouldn't let something free or "rescue" an animal without thinking about it or researching it.

It's quite sickening, that we feel the need to inflict unimaginable cruelty on animals and jail people who try to spare their suffering. They don't want to be cut open or have toxins injected into them. People in history justified treating humans awfully from slavery to genocide to human experimentation, claiming that they were necessary and that people couldn't live without it. They couldn't be more wrong. Modern alternatives to experimentation have been developed (isolated tissues and computer simulations) so we're morally obligated to adopt them, we can even sooner do consensual and non lethal human trials, can't call ourselves morally correct if we condemn vulnerable innocents to horrific abuse.
Rescued wildlife is thoroughly assessed first before granted release into the wild, one assessment done is observing whether or not the animal is aggressive. Aggressive individuals more or less granted release as soon as they are medically cleared. Docile ones, particularly those under human care for a longest time, are not recommended for release and put into care as they are deemed will not survive in the wild.
I’m a wildlife researcher who specializes in herpetology and with all honesty, I hate these effing animal rights activists since most of them don’t even know their cause. Lastly, if animal rights activists really wanted to stop animal testing, they themselves volunteer to research labs as replacement test subjects. However, that would be complicated so you have to stick with rats as they breed quick and a lot.
I rescue animals like cats, dogs, parrots, terrapins and even a crow. Birds and reptiles that I rescued have some injury in their limb or wing that I don't have confidence for them free them. I gave them the best vet care out of my pocket yet I had a bleeding heart Karen argue with me that I'm a horrible person for letting injured animals be in captivity.

Virtue signaling. It's all about doing it to take photos and post them in social media.
Activists aren't responsible for what happens to animals after they're rescued. Living in the wild is obviously a pain, but nothing compared to being abused in a lab or factory farm.
@@TheBayzent That's just your lack of compassion talking. Think about this, if we actually wanted attention we simply wouldn't be doing any of this, we'd be abusing animals like everybody else and gaining attention and money off of normalized industries that do so. Sparing them from the misery of human captivity, commodification, and exploitation has nothing to do with virtue signaling and everything to do with seeing intrinsic value in animals who are sentient individuals who don't want to suffer or be killed for our selfish gain. Liberationists risk their freedom and safety sparing them from suffering. Activists frequently get harassed and mocked for what they support, and they have opposers who shame them simply for emphasizing the negative and cruel aspects of zoos, farms, labs, and the like. In the context of the video I agree releasing a captive carnivore like a penguin was reckless, especially if they weren't msitreated, but I refer to the actions of the movement in general and how most of the rescued ones are artificially bred for generations physically abused in the settings I mentioned. The attention they get is largely negative and depressing, and something we'd rather not live with.

Someone cut open a bunch of cages at the Anchorage Zoo with the net result being an endangered bird (kept in the zoo due to crippled wing) getting trampled to death by yaks. Luckily the tigers had just been fed, so they just took a nap on the nearby road.
Good Lord!-I didn’t believe this at first-what idiot would turn a tiger loose on an unsuspecting community?-but after doing a search on the Internet I found a CNN report dated Sept. 22, 2000, about this incident. According to CNN, only one of the three Siberian tigers left its cage, was “darted” (tranquilized) and returned; the other two stayed inside. And a good thing, too! Back in 2007, three young men (ages 17, 19, and 23) were taunting and throwing things at a Siberian tiger at the San Francisco Zoo (after closing time, when few people were around). The angry tiger leaped up from her pit and escaped over the top, then attacked the three men, killing one and badly mauling the other two. (There’s an entry in Wikipedia about this, “San Francisco Zoo tiger attacks.”) According to reports I read at the time, Siberian tigers are notoriously aggressive- fierce, intensely-focused hunters-even more than the Bengal tigers usually displayed in zoos. Releasing a Siberian tiger into an area containing human adults would be bad enough; releasing one into an area with playgrounds full of children-not to mention dogs, cats, and other domestic animals-would be unspeakably careless, or perhaps inhumanly heartless.
That is reckless I agree but activists can't control animal behavior. Carnivores shouldn't be kept in captivity.
@@sachinraghavan4556 I love how you blame the animals and not the idiots who released them with no concern for the animals' actual wellbeing.
And I don't know if you realize this, but many large carnivores are in danger of extinction. Mostly because of humans transforming their hunting grounds into farmland and then killing the predators for going after livestock instead of their usual prey. Proper zoos are often part of carefully managed breeding programs to preserve genetic diversity.

Activists who release captive animals without caring about the impact of that action on the local environment, or on the animals that they believe that they are “freeing,” are behaving irresponsibly, putting at risk the environment, its human occupants, other animals, and the released animals themselves.
(Your other comment-“Carnivores shouldn’t be kept in captivity”-is much too broad and general an opinion to be addressed in this context.)

Most activists these days (almost exclusively in ‘First World’ countries) are thoughtless idiots who only do what they do to make themselves feel better. They genuinely don’t care if today’s ‘solution’ becomes tomorrow’s problem, because 99% are guided wholly by emotion and are barely capable of logical thinking.

I would love to hear from an ex “activist” who has learned their lesson. Do they exist? What were they thinking to make them like that?
They probably exist just far to embarrassed to talk about it. Imagine being an ex-PETE employee.
😅 should be a record if they won 1st prize in the Darwin awards
Some students in my university for animal behavior/zoology were animal activists. The university offered some on campus jobs like husbandry of the lab animals and they wanted to 'infiltrate' to record and make public the animal's condition..... needless to say, being hounded for the most minute detail of care for every individual animal along side the animal welfare courses made it so they changed their tune.
@@elizaalmabuena Animal welfare groups generally support using and killing animals. Rights activists want to abolish these inherent cruelties.
They don't, nobody who has a moral compass abandons them so easily.
The poor little chicks dying as well. That's so tragic. I hope the staff made sure that particular fact was put in all the local media - and a copy sent to the local animal activist headquarters.
I remember hearing a story where animal rights activists broke in to a laboratory and released all the rabbits, rats, mice, etc. unfortunately the lab was near a highway and you can guess how the story ends
I remember a similar story where they "rescued" a bunch of cows by cutting the fence. They became panicked and ran down a busy road and some got hit too
Cars....

"Let's take an animal from its safe environment it was born and raised in, and place it in an unfamiliar environment they have no idea how to survive in. We're the good guys." - 'Animal Rights Activists'
It’s like moving an animal in a low-predator area they’re adapted to into another more hostile area- oh wait..
It never ceases to amaze me that these so-called "do-gooders" always seem to know absolutely nothing about the animals they try to help. Didn't any of them have pets as a kid? I learned when I was like six that you never release an animal that spent its whole life raised in captivity. My friend had a rabbit that he released when he didn't want to take care of it anymore, and my dad explained to me that if I ever did that with mine, a fox or coyote would probably get it in two seconds, and that was probably what happened to my friend's.
The first lab that I worked at, a behavioral neuroscience lab at Iowa University, there was an animal rights attack on the lab shortly before I arrived. They wanted to be _really_ sure that I wasn't an infiltrator of some kind, so they made me do a transcardial perfusion on a rat on my first day. If you don't know what that is, don't look it up, just know it would turn you green. As I worked there, it became _very_ clear that these animals would never survive outside of our care. They were literally born in our lab and never ate anything we didn't drop in front of them. Many were modified after birth in order to study the development of learning mechanisms in the hopes of understanding the same in humans, and all of them would be fit with permanent headgear - an electrode array attached directly to their skulls. Left to their own devices, they would have had all sorts of infections and likely kill themselves trying to get the thing off.
There would be _zero_ point to removing them from the lab. Many of the people I worked with there also owned pets who were former experimental animals. The only thing you could accomplish by "freeing" the animals is denying humans the treatments that come out of the understanding we were seeking. While we weren't studying a particular disease, we were making real steps toward understanding how and when healthy mammals develop the connections that allow them to learn different types of information about the world they live in - and no, it's much more complicated than having one area or type of neuron that learns, there are multiple anatomically separate mechanisms, each able to find different types of correlations and associations. It's not at all difficult to imagine that our research would enable the development of new treatments for developmental learning disorders in humans whose cases are currently hopeless. To give those humans a chance is more than worth the cost in rats who would never have been born or survived without us anyway.
Thank you for researching those thing !
What is you were studying that required test subjects anyway?
i'm potentially one of those people, I have ADD but as my sister is a doctor she has theorized that simply taking new medication has also helped to restore neural pathways. (as i maintained more orderly behaviour even when not taking the medication)
@@MASTEROFEVIL There were multiple experiments going on. The two I remember most clearly were:
a developmental study where the rats were implanted with electrodes that could be used to stimulate their medial geniculate nucleus (MGN). By doing simple blink conditioning using only the MGN stim as a stimulus, we were able to determine when its connections to the cerebellum came online in the rat's development. The cerebellum learns all behaviors where the stimulus and response overlap in time, with other various constraints.
The other was a cross-modal transfer study in rats with lesions in a medial temporal lobe area whose name escapes me at the moment. Cross-modal transfer is the phenomenon of generalizing a conditioned response to multiple stimuli of different sensory modalities. For example, the rat is first trained to respond to a light, then we later change it to a sound, and they pick it up much faster. It's turning a very specific stimulus into something abstract, from "the light goes on, then I respond" to _"something happens,_ then I respond". But we were able to show that, without this one area of its brain, it can't make that connection, as if they are learning a completely new task. I thought this one was really neat. A very elegant way to examine how abstract ideas form that is usually impossible in a behavioral setting.

I really dislike activists. They are fueled purely by emotion, devoid of logic. But the worst part is that emotion is often not truly righteous, but is posturing for social recognition.
This proves why research is important, and is why I hate the fact that fictional works often portray just releasing the captive animals with no strategy to help them adapt to the changes as a purely good thing both because of the animals dying from lack of ability to survive outside the environments they grew up in and because of the risk to animals living in the wild naturally dying off due to invasive species.
I have personal experience with animal rights activists. My family for 4 generations have owned and operated in multiple mink ranches. For a long time they were very out of the way on the outskirts of the city However as more and more infrastructure and urban development occurred more people starting moving in residentially nearby (They chose to move right next to the mink ranch, and chose to have their houses built there). Immediately after they had moved in they started petitioning for the demolishing and removal of our mink ranch. On their website they literally lied about the state of the ranch and how it operated. They put pictures of mink ranches from third world countries showing them hanging in disgusting conditions. They claimed we would slaughter them alive and do many more terrible things. In reality they were put down using lethal injection in the most humane way possible and were kept well fed and were allowed to raise their own children. I also want to exclaim how viscious mink were. If they were let out of their enclosures to socialize (hypothetically we never actually did this) it would always immediately devolve into fighting to the death. They also often bite humans.
In the end our family was forced to demolish the ranch after activists broke in and released over have they mink. (They all died from starvation on heat stroke ofc, it was 105 degrees outside at the time.) luckily my grandparents had a financial backup so they weren't completely screwed over.
Wow, that’s terrible. I’m so sorry for your loss
And they say humans are the smartest species on the planet, yeah I'm finding that hard to believe
Oh no we are.
It's just that we stopped natural selection from cleaning out the gene pool and thus the breeders produce further detriments to society...
Just stop saving people who do the silliest things and it'll sort itself out in a decade.
There are plenty of smart people but they are drastically outnumbered by stupid people.
That's the weirdest part about humans, they can be very smart or very stupid. They can be angels in the flesh or wear the devil as skin.
Think of the stupidest person you know. Half the population is stupider than that.
Avverage intelligence is just that, average. There are some monumentally stupid people out there.
I always have to laugh when people are talking about whether there is also intelligent life on other planets in the universe.
I think: what do you mean? Also?
They also seem to forget that HUMAN ARE ANIMALS SPECIFICALLY MAMMALS TOO! Why don’t they go out live in the wild like those penguins and see how long they will last without human technology especially PHONE! 😂
We will became animal food, but we are obligated sapient, so we will had a high survival rate if there is resources, but animals, they aren't even facultative intelligent, they will die even food is available.
I give them a couple of hours without social media and technology before they start game ending themselves.
I'd send them all to the Antarctic where the penguins live, see how long they last

@Thenogomogo-zo3un We evolved on the African savannah so Tanzania is probably a more logical place, Antarctica was never humanity's natural habitat
The people who do this sort of thing don't actually care about animals. They care about themselves and how THEY feel. They are only doing this because they want to feel good about themselves.
Well, hey, I really only care about how I feel too but I don't go doing stuff like that
A note on the dolphin/tuna issue. Part of the problem is the dolphins themselves. Fishing boats aren't necessarily *looking for groups of dolphins* they look for schools, which ATTRACT dolphins. Who are also attracted to fishing boats as they know the boats hunt fish.
They ALSO know that the boats corral tuna and make it easier to catch their fill. They're know to actually herd fish into the nets for the boats, which is how they get caught.
We can't untrain them, they train themselves. They're smart enough to understand its a big risk.
The issue is how WE deal with it. I'm certain there's a way we can keep fishing with them but reduce the risk of harming them. They're almost as intelligent as us, surely we can figure out a way to commincate when its time for them to get clear of the nets

Another sad thing about those minks is if they were released and died during summer their pelts are pretty much worthless to fur traders. The valuable mink fur people pay so much for are their winter coats. When they transition from summer to winter coats the coats go from black to white and become softer and fluffier. It’s the winter pelts that hold value.
This really makes me wonder if we have “Animal Activist” to thank for the COVID pandemic.

COVID isn't the first zootonic disease to result from human usage of animals and it won't be the last.

Bison are wild animals. They live in the wild.
Also, piglets aren't separated from their mothers while they're milk-dependent. That would be counterproductive. It's cheaper to give the sow the extra feed she needs to make milk than it is to buy milk for the piglets to eat, because _pigs aren't milked._

This reminds me of Rainbow Six, the novel that is. The overall theme was that of environmentalism, the examples are brought up several times too, from pipelines to the difficulties of political decision influencing to more outside perspectives like that of Popov's.
The antagonists, the head being a CEO of a pharmaceutical company, wanted to save the world, and they would do that by releasing a modified Ebola strain to wipe out mankind. Obviously they fail but the ending is poetic, grimly so. They cleaned up their tracks after they realized their plan was stopped at the last minute, so any trial was sure to fail. So after they were hunted down to their Brazil installation, Clark forced them to undress and go "reconnect with nature." The kicker is that Clark
recalls there's two types of people who get off of choppers. Those who storm into the brush, and those who watch as the chopper leaves, and everyone complicit in that plot was watching the chopper leave.
I imagine many animals "rescued" from captivity did just that when their "rescuers" released them into the wild.

Being an animal activist should have some entrance test like being dumped in a random forest with nothing but clothes on you and survive there for a month so that they can understand how difficult it is to survive in the wild without knowing anything about basic survivial skills so that they think twice on doing the same thing on random animals they rescued
I work as an aquarist in France, I work especially with Gentoo and King penguins. These animals LOST their natural instincts... if you grab them and send them anywhere else they will DIE... -_-

Animal rights activists that "free" animals like this, aren't doing it for the animal, they are doing it for themselves. It's just selfish self gratification.
The people in these situations cared more about the issue of animal ‘rights’ than they did about the animals themselves, because if they did actually care about the animals’ welfare they would’ve understood what releasing animals born in captivity would mean or what the stress of being removed would do to them. They talk about us educating ourselves, they should take their own advice.
Let's replace animal for testing with animal activists for testing. They clearly have time on their hands so let's take that road with these people.

0:17 thats called kidnapping xD
Isn't it called poaching?
I had an argument with a vegan animal rights activist once. He admitted that he never considered any consequence of his actions and even knowing what the result would be, he would rather see millions of animals die than have them live in captivity and didn't even care about the potential damage to the ecosystem his actions could cause. As long as he felt good by being the savior, the damage was irrelevant.
Death is better than living for a prolonged period of abuse or suffering. Think about it. Activists get involved in liberation when captive animals are abused.
Most animal activists that do the spontaneous things like steal animals to release them in the wild, or really any activist who does something spontaneous or disruptive, only do it because of how it makes them feel.
They don't really care about the animals at all.
And every single one of them have lived a privileged life. Almost all of them come from rich families and have never had a real job. Or at least not for very long.
None of them can think critically or logically. And none of them care about the reprecussions of their actions.
I keep telling people that, do not free animals from zoo and do not feed wild animals and wild birds. Some people just don't understand that animals in zoo are not wild animal with the ability to survive the wild by themselves. And feeding wild animals and birds have more negatives than positives outcome.

Here in Brazil there are institutions specialized in training animals for wild reintroduction. Most of the animals are victims of poaching or illegal commerce. Much of the work is providing a safe place for recently captured animals to heal and reduce the stress they endured, just as much as retraining them to survive. Still, many animals just can't reajust, and they're sent to parks attached to natural reserves, or to certified zoos.

Hunting? We've built tools that make us the best at it, but it's not unique. Ours at least can kill quickly in the modern era- most prey don't get so lucky.
Judging humanity as something beyond the animal kingdom is foolish. We are just another animal. Any grace given to a nonhuman species is a choice, not an obligation, and if the situation were reversed you should expect the same treatment from them.
The only thing we have most of the animal kingdom beat on is that our cognition lets us turn around and justify silly ideas, like taking an animal bred in captivity for human benefit and setting it loose into the wild where it dies less than a week later, and concluding we did good by it.

Keeping carnivores in captivity requires feeding them meat from factory farmed and slaughtered livestock, that's the big issue, when they could easily be hunting in the wild like they were meant to. Wild animals adapted to live in wild settings and shouldn't be in small captive enclosures, especially carnivores for the reason I mentioned.
