Respect for the …
Respect for the living doesn’t matter about clothes or ‘freedom’. A wild they have never known fighting for survival versus a needs met and enriched life. Hmmmm- which AR org indoctrinated you? Your other posts have a flavor of malice also ; )Go figure. Do you get paid or is it the “in” thing? If you are putting animals before people, think about whre you are part of it. Isn’t it better to learn to actually live WITH than without- for all of us?

this video talks …
this video talks about “love and admiration”, but what about respect? dressing a chimpanzee in human clothing is degrading and completely disrespectful. if you love an animal, you should respect him/her. living a human life is no life at all for these individuals! how unfair of you to take their freedom and destroy it just like people are destroying their habitats.
shame on you rexano…. unlike you… i care deeply about these creatures.

Extinction means no …
Extinction means no more. The range is to suit their needs. If their needs are met in a smaller range they travel less. Common sense even the animals themselves know. They don’t waste energy traveling to find what is already there.

Much better to have …
Much better to have? Hm, I highly doubt that- you’re putting yourself and not to mention the cats life in danger. The food is scarce, eh? Well if YOU did some research you’d find out that al long time ago before the food was scarce their territory was the same- they have so much terriotory because they’re territorial.

Do you have any original thoughts?
98% of exotics die before age 2? You do realize that fish are included in that number, along with other species that have a high mortality rate in their natural habitats also. If you would do some research, you would find out that exotic cats fare much better and have a much higher infant survival rate in captivity, not to mention almost double the life expectancy.
500 sq. mi Hmm, ya think that might be because food is scarce?

In order to SAVE …
In order to SAVE animals from EXTINCTION is to preserve their habitat and give people sexually education to bring the population down. There is NO need to keep animal locked up- some animals’ home ranges are up to 500 sq. miles! You can never replace that!
NO WILD animal can be TAMMED!
98% of exotic pets die before the age of 2.. there is NO NEED for this pain & suffering!
By touching a wild animal no knowledge is gained!

As someone …
As someone concerned about the environment, you should be absolutely thrilled that people choose to own exotic pets in particular. While they’re tending to their pets they’re normally not jetting around in a private aircraft, buying a fleet of gas-guzzling vehicles to collect, doing laps on the most popular street in town, or watching as big of a plasma screen as they wanted. Outdoor exotic pet habitats also can make superb places for wild small animals, birds, and vegetation to occupy too.

Pets are part of …
Pets are part of nature- just as humans are. Learning to actually coexist, live with, is a much better option. Ecology lessons are all around us only some choose to make a separation where there is none.

Whoever prepared …
Whoever prepared this video seems to require a good lesson in term of ecology.
Human have already impacting the nature enough with all the crazy things we have done. Pets have such great impact to nature. They introduce diseases that native animals may not have immunity to. They might prey on native animals that has no defense, if the pet escaped. And keeping pets also take up the resources, (light, energy, food, water…etc) which may instead be used to protect the nature wellbeings.

Well propose another solution genius, the ideal solution of preservating species, is keeping their habitats, no comertializing them, but for this, the society requires to make the people work on preservation.

we shouldnt take in pets we should stop destroying habitats and do more recycling i know easier said then done but it should be a jail time law to in my opnion

All people working …
All people working for preservation has done that since like 50 years? It isn’t gonna stop several species from disappearing. In China, the river dolphin has recently gone extinct due to building dams and altering landscape. India will soon have a bigger populace, on less land area. What room and habitat will there be left? Your solution isn’t a solution since humans stop it from happening.

Reality is humans …
Reality is humans are encroaching more & more on these animals “wild” habitats, & aren’t going to stop. If people support AR groups in believing animals should remain in their wild habitats, they WILL become extinct. Their chance of survival is by being bred in captivity, & raised by zoos or private owners. Would you rather see them extict or living, well cared for in captivity?

We need to set …
We need to set aside our flawed definition of ‘wild animal’, and remember that many animals can do just fine in captivity. Although the task of dealing with an animal’s instinstual behavior cannot be neglected (and this is true of common housepets as well), most animals have a remarkable ability to adapt, and in the end are quite happy sharing their world with people.

I think that commercializing them is OK. There is room for improvement, but overall it’s pretty good for the animals and it saves the species.

Most of the exotic …
Most of the exotic animals in captivity are captive bred. They have never seen the wild thus do not miss it. Also most of these animals are catered to and live better than a lot of people.
Keep up the good fight Rexano!

It is because these endangered exotic animals are being bred in captivity there is no need to take them from the wild….and it preserves the species for future generations.

We must not take in …
We must not take in wild animals as pets for they are wild and must remain so. Taking in small animals as pets might destroy large food webs in the wild. It is okay to breed wild animals in captivity as long as they are later released. It is no good shoving them into a cage and giving them kisses every so often. It is absurd.

that is not the solution of the problem, the real solution for the wild animals, is keeping their habitats, no comertializing them.

So nice to see a positive spin on captive wild animals in the private sector. Excellent!

Awesome Video! I hope it receives a LOT of reviews and makes people think twice before supporting those so-called Animal rights groups that take away all rights of the animals to live at all.
