Using case studies and independent analysis of zoo databases, the report provides a comprehensive overview of the exploitation of big cats in zoos across North America.

Key Points:

Using case studies and independent analysis of zoo databases, the report provides a comprehensive overview of the exploitation of big cats in zoos across North America.
Although zoos claim to "protect" big cats, many animals have died from captivity-related causes such as infection, injuries from enclosure companions, and high infant mortality.
Due to inbreeding and habituation to humans, big cats kept in zoos are generally not candidates for release to the wild.
Keeping big cats in zoos clearly serves no positive end, except for those who want to pay to see them.
