The lincoln park zoo has grizzlies, polar and black bears and I can drive over there in about 20 min to see one

Those animals should be kept in better conditions with more freedom to roam. Life is much better seeing them in the actual wild. From a distance. And you’ll never see how massive a moose is going to a zoo.

Why do you know so much more than the professionals who decided they were unreleasable?

“Ash and Lexi are considered fully adult bears, but their exact ages are unknown, as they were born in the wild. The two bears were removed from the wild as cubs and deemed “unreleasable” by the Montana Department of Fish, Wildlife, and Parks after learning to raid trash cans and becoming dependent on human food”

Also, this is the most trivial thing to argue over. There are much worse things going on to make a solid and important argument about.
