Because a 6x4 or whatever size glass tank with a heat lamp is no substitute for their natural environment. How many do you keep per tank and what is the natural density and range (3 dimensional) of these animals in their natural habitat? Do you replicate these densities and ranges?
That's why prisons exist as punishment measures. They take away an individuals freedom to exist as they should so choose.
Just because the prisoners are "well fed and not abused" doesn't take away from the fact that they are being punished and their freedom is taken away.
Normally I could care less, I just find it veryyyy strange that someone who would advocate for animal rights would be involved in captive breeding where the species involved are cooped up and totally restricted from behaving naturally.
