How sweet and how stupid.
In such a vast ocean the likelihood he'll find other Emperors is next to none, meaning he'll become quick prey for a whale, shark or leopard seal.
The notion the right thing to do was release him back into the wild is beyond idiotic.
Animals don't have a desire for or a sense of "freedom".
Their concerns all relate to safety, hunger and proper living conditions (so they can breed) which thanks to all the attention were well met at the Zoo.
He no doubt will miss the zoo.
The notion animals avoid humans and human habitats is a Western myth. They LOVE being around humans provided we don't kill or poison them, YES even wild ones. Just ask the Bears in Yosemite or Yellowstone.
Only Westerners have this absurd view. Proof how wrong it is can be found in Asia. Wild animals live in the cities of India FREELY.
If all the fears we Americans have about disease and attack were true, there wouldn't be 1.2 million Indians today.
