Some animals will only “love each other very much” under very specific conditions. Sometimes those conditions are either impossible or very, very expensive to recreate in captivity. Or we just haven’t quite worked out what the conditions are yet. Sometimes it’s cheaper or easier for our corporate overlords to just let workers die instead.
