Shraddha's reposted caption read, "So, you’re tired of isolation? ‏‏‎ ‎

As COVID-19 has forced the world to quarantine, we’ve all felt the effects of isolation — depression, anxiety, loneliness. Animals experience these same emotions. As humans, we tend to lack empathy for others until we’ve experienced their situation ourselves. But now that we’ve felt the suffering of captivity, let’s extend empathy toward the other living beings that we share this planet with.

Millions of animals have been isolated for their entire lives. In isolation, these animals exhibit concerning behaviours including self-harm. Mental health is not a uniquely human trait. This is not normal.

So, you’re tired of isolation? These animals have been isolated for their entire lives. No living being should live in captivity. We are guests of this planet, not masters. #Repost @earth"
