just how much studying have you done on the circumstances concerning deer ,carrying capacity, deforestation etc.?.I would suspect None.
I would also suggest you study up on the 'inbreeding' of fish as it happens quite frequently in nature..many of the species are located in habitats that 'isolate' them..Altum Angels are one species. as are the Species of Discus. asd well as many other Cichlids.
The difference is the gene pool.
Yes there arer many wild caught fish..but..many of the species you find in the LFS are captive bred and are far removed from the wild lines they were selected from.
btw, I am not trying to 'change' your mind..but try to shed some light.
it's great to have an opinion..but substantiate it with facts.
btw, surrounding the captive breeding..it really boils down to costs..if they captive breeder felt morally obligated to sustain all the fish that are raised..they would not be in business long.
and low and behold we would have few fish to select from at the stores.
would you then consider that you are now part of the equation? by simply being a fish keeper you support these habits.
