About this listen

A new report is reigniting debate over the future of captive wildlife entertainment in Australia, with fresh scrutiny on breeding programs at Sea World on the Gold Coast. Advocates say global tourism is moving away from keeping animals in captivity… but here, polar bears and dolphins are still being bred for performance, in what many experts say are inhumane conditions.

So, is Australia falling behind the rest of the world? And should the practice be banned altogether?

In this episode of The Briefing, Natarsha Belling is joined by Suzanne Milthorpe from World Animal Protection Australia to unpack the latest findings in the new report.
