Joe Rogan described a disturbing incident he heard about at a Swedish zoo called Furuvik. Over there, several chimpanzees broke out of their enclosure and were subsequently shot by zoo staff. The UFC commentator was unhappy with the incident and proceeded to share his thoughts about capturing animals.

Furthermore, the dead bodies remained on the floor over a day after the incident. As the staff had run out of tranquilizers and had to resort to killing the chimpanzees.

Furthermore, zoos often present a distorted view of the animal kingdom. This gives people a false sense of understanding about the lives and behaviors of wild animals. It can lead to misconceptions and misunderstandings about conservation and the importance of preserving natural habitats.
