Support I really like this photo, but it is not huge for an animal pic on Commons, nowadays, and it is a zoo pic. But I do think it deserves a feature. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 09:52, 11 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose A zoo is an unnatural environment where animals are kept for the pleasure of humans. The effort required to get a good image of a zoo animal is far less than for an animal in nature. Unless it is a species that is rare in nature, I would not support zoo images to be featured on Commons. The Eurasian wolf is not rare, it is listed as being of "least concern". --Tagooty (talk) 07:30, 17 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I am not saying you should support and you are right to think that nothing replaces wildlife. However, the domain of Pescheray, like some other parks, works for the conservation and the reintroduction of many species (which sometimes come from individuals or circuses). The domain participates financially in the reintroduction program, with the money obtained thanks to the entrances of the visitors. For example, two bisons were recently reintroduced to Azerbaijan like many others. --Clément Bardot (talk) 08:38, 17 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the info about Pescheray, am glad to hear of the humane activities. --Tagooty (talk) 12:59, 17 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
