technically no
we backtrack ethical lines because we like to think enviroment is open season and that we can't stop people from exploiting it, which is already giving too much agency to people and nothing to animalsif we are really considering the impact of having animals in zoos as a purely moral question we have to go back and ask by what right do we have to exploit the enviroment in such a way that necesitate the need to extract endangered animal in the first place
so it was never about ethics but how much we ground we are willing to give for the veil of care, and frankly it's abysmal, in a more just society, animals will get majority of earth's land and we would strictly enforce interaction with them, but since we believe we have final say now, technically anything is ethical as it is our framework to decide
