Hi Jo, and thanks for your response. I'm glad that this is your opinion as I was swaying
towards it myself. I had already started wondering how I could rationalize it to myself if I
was to work somewhere like that. It is difficult when organisations get the word
'conseration' in, and it usually has the desired effect (ie to make people think that it is for
te greater good.) I am sure that they do worthy work, but I to tend to agree that if an
animal is endangered then it is its habitat that should be looked at rather than pumping
money into captive breeding.
Thanks for cementing my view on this.
Jo.
