I refuse to go to zoos and places like Sea World. I'll go see animals if the main goal in mind is centered around the animals, and not the profit. I watched Blackfish as well, but pretty recently, and it made me sick. It's amazing how much love they have for their families. It seriously broke my heart watching that one orca crying out for one of its family members that was taken away. It's sad that people don't even realize that humans aren't the only ones that can feel these intense emotions, they think god planted it into our minds only.
Anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.' -Isaac Asimov-
