Dear MEL School’s
Topic Readers,
Copenhagen Zoo
kills 4 lions, weeks after shooting giraffe
A highly disputed
and controversial culling of a young giraffe, Marius, was reported in MEL
School’s Topic Reading Vol.684 on February 24th.
This time, four lions
were euthanized in the same zoo for the same purpose of maintaining its sound
and healthy population.
According to the European
Association of Zoos and Aquaria, which manages 345 zoos and aquariums across
Europe, such intended killings are quite popular and routine practices among
their institutions.
If that is the
case, which is the victim, the euthanized lions or the zoo that keeps its operation
transparent?
Enjoy reading and
thinking if a culling, whether it’s a euthanasia or not, is a good way or the only
option to maintain sound and healthy population of zoo animals.
By the way, are
those the lions that ate poor Marius?
