About Fairuse Akter
An explorer and an aspirant biodiversity conservation researcher. I seek to delve deeper into the study of the human-nature nexus and strive to foster more harmonious coexistence. I have gained brief experience in wildlife conservation at the Creative Conservation Alliance, working with Western Hoolock Gibbons and a few other wild animals. I am also working as an Associate Trainer at Mekateam, a game-based pedagogy where I provide training on basic climate literacy and biodiversity conservation to youth. Moreover, I synthesize and express my understanding of biodiversity and the natural world through my initiative, 'Toru.' Currently, I am undertaking research on Asian Elephants addressing the human-elephant conflict in Bangladesh.

A few days ago, I came across a bizarre argument made by someone regarding the importance of zoos. This person claimed that we need zoos in case of a 'sad event' that could wipe out certain species, suggesting that zoos could help save them. This perspective completely ignores the changes and challenges faced by the animals living in captivity. What frightens me is that a large number of people genuinely believe this to be true!
Thank you so much, Venessa, for your work on this issue. I hope to see a more ethical world for animals in the future. Best wishes to Four Paws
Absolutely!
