Animals in tourist attractions
Animals in tourist attractions should have never started because it is privating animals their reals needs and making them suffer in multiple ways.
First there is obviously intentional violence undergone by animals that shouldn't be tamed, they are often taken away from their mother at a young age or they are intensely tortured and beaten without water and food to become obedient. This causes traumatism and those animals will not be able to live naturally in nature after suffering this. Dangerous animals are getting their teeth or claws pulled off, which is obviously extremely painful and above all it is often done without much sterilization so it might cause infections and diseases.
Then there are unintentional consequences and violence, from the environment they are forced to live in, often overpopulated without enough food and water or unadapted to their original lifestyle. In fact the attractions don't mind the real way of living of animals, they are putting bears together even though they are rogue bears that keep fighting due to the environment. Also it is so stressful that it can lead them to self harm themselves, and to death.
To conclude, there are too many contradictory reasons to make a show with animals in tourist attractions that it isn't worth it. As we discover that animals have feelings and basic needs as much as us, we need to allow them to live a peaceful life in their own natural environment. It is just very selfish and cruel to make them suffer with the greed of making money and the unconsciousness of the tourists.
