And yet we have overcome this innate selfishness in so many other aspects. Shrugging your shoulders and saying “Oh well, guess I just don’t care about these sentient beings getting killed for my convenience” is just lazy. We are better than that.
If we’re better than that we probably shouldn’t run zoos in the first place. The fact that we do tells me we have a long way to go and I’m saying this as someone who enjoys zoos.

Yeah I wonder what the common evil is here between for-profit zoos and making money by killing animals and selling their body parts.
