...shouldn't these studbooks are the bridge to mend their relation with private sectors or is this just their "plan B"; something their could rely on later should (heaven forbid!!!) lightning strikes again ?

...>>Zoos drive animals to extinction – they want their animals to be as hard to get as possible - that way they will be the experts and leaders of their own empire.

>>This debated rages on between zoos themselves as to whether they should deal with the public or not and from what I can see they are pretty much evenly split.

bless your heart please God!

>>keeping them as a pet- that way the animal’s will be kept for our children
