It is worth noting that the article says they are euthanizing the animals before feeding. So it's not like they take a terrified pet and let the tiger rip it apart alive.
Still, not a fan of this...
The tiger got to eat and they need a meat based diet.
Option A: Feed them animals that have to bee euthanized and die either way.
Option B: Bury the animal that had to be euthanized and on top of it kill another animal so the tiger can eat.
Option A means less animals killed. Now of course we can talk about whether zoos should exist in the first place, for which there are good arguments that they should not.
Tiger got to hunt, bird got to fly; Man got to sit and wonder 'why, why, why?' Tiger got to sleep, bird got to land; Man got to tell himself he understand
Fluffy meowed and meowed, but didn't get to eat. So, Fluffy scratched and clawed, but then got turned to meat.
One of my favorite lines of all time.
hee, that was fresh.
Right in the article it says "The animals are gently euthanized by trained staff"
They are tossed in to be torn appart. Iirc predators love to go balls first if the prey does not mean too much effort for them.
No where does it say that in the article, and twice it says they are euthanized beforehand, so I'm just going to have to assume you are making things up and spreading lies for your own agenda unless you can prove otherwise
Can't not be serious even for a moment with these folks.
