It’s not their responsibility to educate you. Look that information up yourself if it’s something you’re interested in. You’re just being negative without any reason. Reintroduction programs are working around the world.
I wasn’t demanding they educate me, I was curious if they had a source to back up their claim.
The ones being negative are the zoos keeping animals captive for entertainment. The good of conservation and rehabilitation work doesn’t justify that
Edit: I educated myself, turns out my hunch was right and the point I was trying to make stands. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7380022/ “The 40 species of animals bred for release by zoos represented only 14% of all animal species for which conservation translocations were published and only 25% of all animal species that were bred for releases occurring in North America”
We don’t even need zoos to do the conservation work.

Yeah, we all know. You’re “just asking questions”.
You’ve also made it clear that you don’t understand how modern zoos tend to work. They are often rehabilitation centers. And yes, we clearly do need them to do the conservation work because it’s not being done otherwise.
Did you read the study I linked? Do you have a source for your claims? “Just asking questions” is very different to asking for a source, especially when I’ve looked into it and found a study counter to your claim. For the record, I also ask for sources from people who I think are correct or mostly correct: https://slrpnk.net/comment/10039992
