Hello comrades. I don't think I've ever posted a particular question on this site but I've been thinking a lot recently about zoos. Specifically should they exist? Are they a good idea to have them while the world is being destroyed by capitalism? Should they exist after the revolution?
The Soviet Union had zoos. I think it's gets kids interested in animals and you can get people into conservation. Zoos have come a long way since the iron prisons my relatives described from the 60s. As long as the animals are well cared for and sourced ethically, then I don't see a problem. Though in a capitalist system, their probably isn't a good way to own a zoo. Apparently the Houston Zoo went from public to a non profit because it's a hassle for the parks department, I'm sure some ghouls also wanted it that way too.
There is a reptile channel I used to follow and they open up a zoo. Rex, the subject of the video is a rescue. She also mentions that zoo displays give a lot more room that a collector can provide.
