The Minnesota Zoo did a photo series of Zookeepers as Animals for National Zookeeper Week and it’s hilarious! (Source)
thats a good idea actually: free the animals caged against their will in an unfamiliar environment and replace them with shitty humans
Wow that’s a really rude thing to say about people who have dedicated their entire lives to looking after these animals and making sure their lives are as fulfilled and enriching as possible. These animals are not “caged”, they’re living in comfortable enclosures with all their needs provided to them. I don’t know a lot about the Minnesota Zoo but their enclosures are definitely not cages.
And no, you can’t free these animals. They’ve lived their entire lives under human care and freeing them would kill them. But sure you continue to believe that animal behaviour is exactly like a Disney Movie where animals sit in cages and dream of freedom and where learning history isn’t a thing and where ~natural wild instinct~ switches on at the click of a button :)))
Take your misinformed, anthropomorphic rubbish elsewhere thanks

Those “shitty humans” do more for endangered wildlife than edgy ar activists ever will. That zoo has a breeding population of Przewalskis wild horses, an animal so persecuted that it was EXTINCT except in zoos, and thanks to ZOOS it still exists and thanks to zoos we were able to put some back into the wild where a few small herds are now growing again.
Why do you hate wild horses so much and want them to go extinct yo?
