    Well, I hope the ones thay can be released are and the ones that can’t get accommodation in a reputable rescue.

        Many zoos and aquariums have animals that can’t be rehabilitated and released. For instance, the Vancouver Aquarium has mostly blind seals because they couldn’t make it on their own. Having them at the aquarium also allows those seals to raise young foundlings so they can be released later. It also generates awareness of the amazing work that the Marine Mammal Rescue does to help so many aquatic mammals that have been hurt by humans.

        For many of these animals, the alternative is death.

        Are you PETA?
