This article examines how the zoo's explicit display of clinical detachment through public dissection reveals the complex dynamics of human-animal relations in contemporary conservation institutions. Drawing on 17 months of ethnographic fieldwork, I demonstrate how zoos cultivate ‘fascination’ as a carefully managed form of attachment that enables rather than prevents detachment from animals. Through analysis of the Marius case, I show how fascination operates as more than simple enchantment − it disciplines public understanding of nature and produces specific forms of ethical responsibility. The European Association of Zoos and Aquaria (EAZA) policy of culling healthy animals reflects a clinical logic that starkly contrasts with impassioned public responses, illuminating how engagement and detachment co-constitute each other in zoo spaces. This co-constitution enables certain kinds of response-ability while disabling others, revealing how conservation institutions shape possibilities for multispecies relations.</p>","PeriodicalId":46293,"journal":{"name":"Anthropology Today","volume":"41 1","pages":"11-14"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2025-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/1467-8322.12938","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143121377","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The case opened new legal pathways and influenced the growth of Indigenous women's associations throughout the country, including the creation of AMARN, founded by the plaintiffs, and now Brazil's oldest Indigenous association. The example demonstrates that the capacities of the speaker alone are inadequate to answer Spivak's question.

In Japan, the term oya-gacha (parent-gacha) has emerged as a metaphor for the arbitrary circumstances of birth, appearing even in Japan's 2023 national university entrance exam. As Jiang demonstrates in this issue, anti-natalists have adopted this metaphor to critique procreation, comparing the odds of being born to advantaged parents to the slim chance of obtaining valuable items from these machines.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The human figures visible inside the capsules represent what anti-natalists describe as the uncontrollable variables of existence: social status, genetic inheritance and geographical location. Japanese anti-natalists have specifically chosen the gacha metaphor because it symbolizes a mechanism operating purely by chance, producing both fortune and disappointment.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This interpretation reflects broader secular shifts in how procreation is understood, moving away from religious frameworks of divine planning toward views emphasizing randomness and parental responsibility.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The machine's mechanical nature illustrates contemporary anxieties about technological control over reproduction, which Jiang explores through cases like IVF (in vitro fertilization) and antenatal screening. These developments have intensified ethical debates about procreation in an era of climate crisis and growing existential risks.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Back cover caption, volume 40 issue 6&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;DECOLONIZING CHAGOS?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A young Chagossian girl learns the technique of coconut grating from a community leader who also grew up in exile, embodying the intergenerational transmission of cultural knowledge that has sustained the displaced Chagossian community. From the late 18th century onwards, coconut plantations dominated the Chagos Islands' economy, with each family processing hundreds of coconuts daily to produce copra (dried coconut kernel) and coconut oil. These skills, passed down through generations, formed the backbone of Chagossian society.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When British authorities forcibly removed the islanders between 1965 and 1973 to make way for a US military base on Diego Garcia, they disrupted not just lives and livelihoods but entire systems of cultural knowledge transmission.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The October 2024 agreement between the UK and Mauritius recognizes Mauritian sovereignty over the Chagos Archipelago, yet ensures continued US military presence on Diego Garcia for at least 99 years.

Unlike traditional museums presenting history, these exhibitions offer carefully crafted visions of the future, serving as deliberate performances of state-led nation-building.
