Default Nature vs Nurture

So a zoo in Germany had polar bears that had cubs. After one bear starved and ate her cubs the debated whether to let 'nature take it's course' or intervene and have a human-dependant cub to raise - such as Knut - and the media frenzy that surrounded the bear.

Quote:
The cub was fished out of the Nuremberg bear-pit after a public and political outcry. Two polar bears, Vilma and Vera, gave birth before Christmas. Vilma let her two cubs starve and ate them, bones and all. Vera prowled the compound aimlessly, her cub in her mouth.

Mr Encke said that nature should be left to take its course. In the Arctic wilderness polar bear mothers frequently rejected their young, especially if they sensed that the cubs were too sickly to survive.
My question is.. You have polar bears in Captivity in a ZOO - what part of nature taking it's course does that involve??? Since they are endangered species, isn't the goal to have as many survive as possible - nature nas nothing to do with it - you've already bent that out of whack.

The details of my life are quite inconsequential.... very well, where do i
begin? My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from
Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a fifteen
year old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark.Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. My childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When I was insolent I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds- pretty standard really. At the age of twelve I received my first scribe. At the age of fourteena Zoroastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my testicles. There really is
nothing like a shorn scrotum... it's breathtaking- I highly suggest you try it.

I'd have to agree that a Zoo is meant to preserve a species even if they are meant to be on display, so intervening and saving the cubs was the correct this to do.

As you know, Bears are high on Stephen Colbert's list. Therefore anything bad for bears is good for us.

I think saving the bears was the right thing to do.

And no, the idea is to get it out of my body, not put it back in.
