I Support Humane Captivity

Feel free to use this stamp if you'd like to!

I've been meaning to put something like this together for a while... and finally got around to it.

I am NOT an ignorant fool who sticks with my beliefs for no other reason than my own lack of knowledge or consideration. In fact, I am very well-researched and well-informed on all sides of the captivity issue, and this is my opinion... an opinion that I am entitled to as an individual. You are also entitled to your own opinion, and that opinion does not have to agree with mine. Although I am open to intelligent discourse about the topic, I am not in any way interested in an aggressive confrontation spurred forth by popular misinformation.

Ahem... about comments...
If I find comments on this stamp confrontational or disrespectful, I will simply disable comments and hide any that I find objectionable. This is my stamp - a piece of work in my gallery like any other - not an ideal location for others to grandstand.

HUMANE Captivity...not Human Captivity
I originally designed the stamp to simply read "I Support Captivity", however... this is not really the case. I do not blindly support all zoos and aquariums, for there are still some in various parts of the world that adhere to barbaric practices to the detriment of the reputation of all others. I do not believe in broad generalizing judgements for the most part, for quite often, such blanket statements are the result of ignorance.
