I know a few people who would make excellent emu scat.
Zoos are an outdated entertainment concept. We used to show people in them, too. Circuses with live animals are equally cruel.
If you want to learn about animals, you can learn to help them without dragging them over here and putting them in cages.
People just hate the facts of life without knowing they hate the facts of life, because we detatch and delude them from our everyday goings on.
The facts of life are just kind of shit. It's not fair. Its brutality indifferent. Thats all.
I think Zoos in developed western countries out perform nature on the basis of 'ethical concerns' any day of the week
If you love animals, don't do that to them.

I've been a vegetarian for 12 years and it's not because i love animals, I'm just not into suffering and torture basically I suspecr most are probably assholes, there are lots of things don't like but I don't torture them, and atleast to me it's pretty clear that nature is careless about pretty much everything except your own, wether or not it's intended nature makes tortureeverywhre. It is literelly incapapble of giving a thought let alone care for you. Period.
Big cats are mandate carnivores. What is your solution.?? Atleast at the zoo the Euthanize the animals used for food. What would you prefer. Do you know the survival rate for tiger cubs in the wild. Perhaps you should do some reading. The zoo is comparitivlt a bastion of safety and considerations from people who actually think and care about things, leave it to the savannah. You get nothing and usually less then that. Eaten alive. Die of thirst. Disease. Sexed Fighting. And all the emotional truama that an animal can stomach, loss of loved one, abondment, fear, every kind of illness, congenital, contagious, psychological.. It's not just captivity in a zoo capable of mental truama. Pick your flavour but one has less nails in it. Enjoy the cats keep them happy. Minimize harm maximise good. Don't make more. That's all there is to do.

They're animals caged for entertainment and don't even belong on this continent, much less in your cages, held out for ticket sales and surrounded by food and beverage and merch vendors.
Wrong.

[submitted w/o opinion] Based on an actual conversation last night, son #3 would eagerly donate guinea pigs in support of this. I will note here that he would have to buy them first.
