Yes it is. You may not like it, but as long as they aren't inbreeding them then it's every bit as perpetuating the species as it would be if the cats were mating in the wild.

No it isn't, and it has nothing to do with me liking it or disliking it.

What perpetuates the species is ongoing procreation. When Joe or Doc sells to someone who keeps a tiger in their backyard, that tiger isn't procreating.

In the wild, the tigers born go on to have their own offspring. That perpetuates the species. Domestically, it only happens if the tiger goes to a facility set up to allow for continued breeding over generations.

That's not what Joe and Doc do. They just sell to anyone with money. You don't perpetuate the species, you get a lot of people with a tiger in their yards that just live out their lifespan there.
