Jersey Zoo’s new director says he wants to rebuild public trust, but no rebrand, reshuffle or masterplan can change the fundamental reality: animals are still being kept in captivity for human purposes.
Captivity is not made ethical by better PR. It remains the problem.

“Dolphinariums belong to the past. Europe must move towards solutions that respect animal welfare, such as marine sanctuaries, and not return to outdated models. The science is clear: the physical, social, and cognitive needs of dolphins cannot be met in captivity.”
#EndCaptivity
“What the Walloon Government is planning is a scandal. Reauthorizing dolphinariums represents the greatest regression in animal welfare ever seen. Dolphins would be sacrificed to satisfy private interests.”

Bears are exploited in zoos, circuses, roadside shows, bile farms & bear-baiting dogfights, often in appalling conditions. #EndCaptivity

In zoos, lives are controlled by breeding plans and transfers that can separate bonded individuals. Behind barriers, many show stress behaviours because captivity can’t meet their needs.
Choose curiosity without cages, support sanctuaries, protect habitats, & speak up to #EndCaptivity
Zoos love to call this “conservation” whenever a baby animal is born.
But if these animals are not being bred for release or genuine population recovery, then what exactly is being conserved?
This is captivity being repackaged as conservation.

In zoos, when someone no longer fits available space or breeding plans, they may be labelled ‘surplus’ and killed by zoos or transferred away. Families are disrupted, and individuals pay with their lives.

Today we celebrate mothers and their love. This Mother’s Day, we’re thinking of animal mothers in zoos, aquariums and other captive facilities who are denied the chance to raise their babies.
#MothersDay #Freedom #EndCaptivity
In the 'wild', animals make decisions all day: where to go, who to be near, when to rest, when to avoid danger.
That’s why captivity so often leads to frustration, repetitive behaviours, and stress.

A bonobo cracked the glass in the Memphis Zoo exhibit. Visitors were hoping for a reaction when they pounded on their chests taunting the apes.
Captive animals are already under stress from the mundane lives they're forced into. Animals also get upset when being harassed & taunted. #EndCaptivity
Today is World Wildlife Day, and a reminder that “conservation” is often used to justify captivity.

Mobile zoos are gearing up for spring events.
That means more animals transported from place to place, handled by strangers, and kept in constant stress.
Your monthly gift can help us stop this before the season begins.

🐘 This mother & her herd reacted immediately to hearing the baby in panic.
Elephants are among the most empathetic & conscious beings on the planet. Humans confine these majestic & highly intelligent beings in tiny spaces with no quality of life to raise families in an empty world.
#EndCaptivity
Animals in zoos and aquariums are individuals with their own needs, relationships, routines and choices. Behind the glass, those choices are stripped away.

Hippos are classified as a threatened species due to human activity impacting their environment. Hippos don't belong in captivity. They desire to live free in their natural habitats. 🦛
