As clouded leopard cubs prepare to make their debut at Houston Zoo, Born Free USA’s CEO, Adam M. Roberts, speaks out against the keeping of animals in captivity. “Zoos put millions of dollars into the building of these enclosures; the same amount of money could fund conservation projects for years,” Roberts explains. Born Free USA also argues that there is no evidence that visiting animals at zoos leads to a desire to help animals in the wild.
