I absolutely agree, though sometimes we prevent certain animals from going extinct by keeping them in zoos....I rememebr the Berber(spelling?) lion was for many years considered extinct when one day that species was noticed in a zoo...and later they found out that there were 6 still left in the world.I am not sure what happened afterwards but quite possibly they started a breeding program...
