[00:00:00]Three animals that have never survived captivity [music] and one of them the zoos try to silence. Number three, the mountain gorilla. You've seen a lot of gorillas in zoos your entire life, but never a mountain gorilla because none of [music] them have ever survived captivity. In the 60s and 70s, researchers captured several juveniles to study [music] them. Every single one died within weeks. The leading theory is that the stress of leaving their quiet misty mountain forest alone was enough to shut their bodies down. Number two, the narwhal. Its tusk isn't just for show. It is filled with millions of nerve endings [music] that detect water temperature, pressure, and movement. So, when you put a narwhal in an aquarium, the warm dirty water is physically [music] painful to it. In 1970, Vancouver Aquarium captured six narwhals.

[00:00:49]Every single one of them was dead before the year ended. Number one, >> [music] >> the great white shark. Every aquarium that has ever tried to keep one has failed [music] and the reason is brutal.

[00:00:59]A great white has to keep moving to breathe. The moment you put in a tank, the stress builds and it stops eating.

[00:01:04]In 1984, the Monterey Bay Aquarium's first great white refused every meal [music] and starved itself to death in 11 days.
