	Captive import - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Captive import is an automobile marketing term denoting a foreign-built vehicle which is sold and serviced by a domestic manufacturer through its own dealer body.
		Captive imports are often aimed at the lower end of the market, but this is not always so.
		Recent examples of captive imports in the U.S. have included the Cadillac Catera, a rebadged Opel Omega, the Chevrolet Aveo, built by GM Daewoo, and the rather confusing Chrysler Crossfire — an American design which mostly uses Mercedes-Benz mechanicals but is actually built by Karmann in Germany.

	Reptile Room - Captive Bred vs. Wild Caught
		Captive produced reptiles are not only disease free, but are also almost always easier to handle and keep.
		Captive bred specimens are preferable because they accept pre-killed rodents readily.
		Captive bred animals are much hardier, but they still require proper husbandry.

	CAPTIVE CARE FOR BOA CONSTRICTORS AND PYTHONS
		Most captive bred boas and pythons may be sold and purchased legally while most imports require a very hard to obtain permit to import and in some cases a permit to even own.
		Captive lengths range from about 6-9 feet with wild specimens having been recorded to reach upwards of 12 feet.
		The two most common species kept as pets are the ball python, the smallest and some of the most difficult of the pythons to keep in captivity, and the Burmese python one of the largest of the pythons.

	Captive Workers
		The H-1B legislation is part of an implicit new model of immigration emerging from an accumulation of measures in Congress, wherein "nonimmigrants" (the technical term for those on temporary visas) are admitted for long periods of time to work for specific employers, without the ability to change the terms of employment or switch employers.
		The captive workers are subject to all the abuses one would expect, including payless paydays, sexual exploitation, coerced abortions, and, for some of the Chinese, no freedom to go to church.
		These "research scholars" are being imported on J visas, a new frontier of captive labor.

	Zoos Import Elephants from Swaziland
		Swaziland imported the elephants in order to reestablish the species in a land where elephants had been extirpated decades before by hunting and habitat destruction.

		Their decision flies in the face of the opinion of the world's leading African elephant experts who have termed the proposed elephant import both "irresponsible" and "dangerous" and have warned about the negative impact it will have on elephant conservation efforts in Africa.
