Is your objection a concern for the well-being of the released animal? Or the upsetting of the natural populations with captive bred animals? Or something else that I'm missing? I just want to understand where your concern lies.

I released a captive anole once when I moved to Florida. He was rescued from my high school biology class. I had him for 5 years in Oregon, then let him loose when I had the chance. Obviously I would not release a non-native species, but is there more to it than that? What am I not seeing? Did I do something I shouldn't have?

Thanks!
