Bill S-15, introduced in the Senate this week, would prohibit new captivity of elephants and great apes, including for breeding, without a licence that shows it is for conservation, science or the animalโs welfare.
Seems like a good idea.

If only we had better more humane laws for the general welfare and wellbeing of all homo-sapiens
We seem doomed to always follow the process without skipping steps. The first child welfare organizations were modeled on the existing animal welfare organizations.
On my worst days, I think that the real reason certain people want to ban recording what goes on in animal agriculture is because legally requiring the humane treatment of animals tends to lead to legally requiring the humane treatment of humans.
