Hey there @phortun ! Thank you very much for your response. This was something that he actually did once, working in a dolphinarium. where he did some important scientific research on dolphins and marine mammals. But he quit his job there already and now studies Natural Resource Management .. Actually he once quoted it like this: "if this place did not exist, this study would not have been possible." .. I am a scientist myself and know of this big problems and that it is really hard in many cases to distinguish between black and white sometimes. Especially if the governments do not care about nature-related studies at all and decline to fund important research, then people need to improvise .. But this is actually a topic that can be discussed until infinity and these ethical question are there as long as there are scientists already. If we never ever opened a human bodies in our history to take a look inside, we would also never gained books and books of valuable medicinal knowledge. And I do not dare to start an in-depth ethical science discussion ^^ .. But, it is a valid question that should be taken into account every time we reflect at out work. If just the governments would just finance proper scientific complexes we could change a lot, but I am afraid that this will never happen. They probably care more for income, then what is beneficial for the environment and mother nature in generell
