Please stop. Also most zoos hold animals that can longer live in the wild, or else they'll die. As for aquariums, most if not all aquariums make it so that their tanks are similar to the great open sea the animals they'll hold are used to. They live comfortably. The sharks did not, of course, so this is why they stopped holding great whites.

I think all you need is to have a giant aquarium, like the size of the Atlantic or Pacific oceans & they will be good.

I saw one of those juvenile great white sharks at Monterey Bay Aquarium. I’m glad they no longer try to bring them in. Given what we know of them - that they travel great distances in their lifetime - it makes sense that they can’t adapt to aquarium life. Not even in that vast Open Ocean exhibit at MBA.

I remember as s teen waiting anxiously for the shed aquarium to showcase their great white as they advertised they will have one soon. The advertisements continued for many years and i finally gave up waiting. Until this day as far as i know and i might be wrong they were never able to have one.

I'm not against zoos, as long as they're more like rescues. But if it doesnt work out more than once, it's best to stop trying in instances like this.

Hence aquariums and zoos, plus it makes it easier for the public to learn about them

End aquariums and zoos, transition to natural history museums. You’ll learn just as much about animals from taxidermy as you would from looking at an animal in a cage. Sanctuaries for rescued animals that can never return to the wild are a different thing, and so is keeping endangered animals in captivity in the hopes of breeding for repopulation. But if you want to see some exotic wild animals just watch the BBC docs, they’re amazing.

@Kate I agree with you, except for the first sentence. We learn from failure, but when it's a life in the game, the failure leading to death, I think is better to get all the information posibile before atempting. Those poor sharks died because the people that captured them didn't know their needs, they didn't know all the information they could get about white sharks. If there are more persons that are trying to do the same thing, that can lead to the extintion of the species. This is a really serious problem.

honestly this sounds horrible for sharks... they're already dying due to the affects of our actions, so we should just leave them alone

Just want to shoutout the Monterey Bay Aquarium, I grew up going there for the past 16 years even as a 3 year old kid in pre school we’d take field trips there. Since they opened their main goal has always been to do what’s best & healthiest for the animals, a great animal sanctuary glad they’re doing it right.

Sadly, that just isn’t plausible for some animals. Many, many animals do amazingly in captivity because there are many less hazards, and because their habitats and diets are easier to recreate. Great White Sharks just don’t have a habitat that we can recreate in captivity. People are now, instead of keeping them in captivity and killing them, tracking them in the wild instead. This means we get to learn from the sharks, and they get to keep on living their lives.

@@Amy_the_Lizard There's obviously a world of difference between dogs and white sharks though. Domesticated animals have gone through literally thousands of years of human-controlled selective breeding to make them better suited to being domesticated, making them friendlier and often smaller, more docile and easier to tame. Even less intensely breed creatures that we have as pets like various lizards and birds are smaller and easier to take care of, yet a lot can go wrong with them too. In fact essentially all domesticated creatures can still massively suffer mental and physical issues from improper care. The only exception probably being like, insects. So imagine trying to adapt a great white shark, even a relatively small or young one, to living in captivity in a small environment, after being corralled and transported which is often a hugely stressful thing for them. The whole process is an absolute nightmare for those sharks, they're massive, incredibly powerful creatures, it would take centuries of breeding to get them anywhere near naturally ready to live in such small, controlled environment, by then they'd have to be much dumber and docile, it really isn't worth it.
