no animal big or small land or water or amphibious should be kept in captivity. i have more to add but it's better left unsaid
I improved it in the format of a balanced argument (so far I've only done the against):
Against: Marine animals live in the oceans for a few reasons. 1) It has water with the right amount of every element and 2) It needs a lot of space to migrate and stuff. Marine and wildlife centers violate both needs: 1) no marine/wildlife center can provide the EXACT amount of each element and 2) They definitely DO NOT provide enough space to migrate.

∙ 14y agoIt depends on what each person thinks. Everybody believes something else. I believe that if a marine animal is seriouly hurt they should be helped by humans if the wound is fixed and if possible, the animal should be released into the wild. If the animal cannot be released for medical reasons then I think it should be put into an aquarium and be taken care of. It all depends on a persons personal view. You can think something else, but, I think that if the animal is taken from that sea and you want to keep it, and its not injured, please don't, the sea is its home. It might have children or a family.
