Pune Animal Liberation on Instagram: "The animals are still inside. The cages are still standing. Zoos are not conservation centres. They are places where wild animals are confined for life for human viewing and entertainment. Animals inside zoos have done no crime. They are jailed only because they are not human. This is why activists were sitting outside Katraj Zoo in a peaceful hunger strike, to question why animals taken from the wild are kept behind bars, and why public money is used to fund cages instead of protecting habitats. As the protest gained visibility, police intervened and the protest was disbanded. Questioning zoos is not extremism. Normalising captivity is. Until animals are free, this conversation will not stop. EndZoos #EndAnimalCaptivity #JusticeForAnimals #SarfaroshiKiTamanna #Pune #KatrajZoo"
