Anger Erupts After Danish Zoo Kills a ‘Surplus’ Giraffe
Marius the reticulated giraffe died at the Copenhagen Zoo on Sunday. He was
2 years old.
The cause of death was a shotgun blast, and after a public autopsy, the
animal, who was 11 feet 6 inches, was fed to the zoo’s lions and other big
cats.
Administrators said they had decided to kill Marius, who was in good health,
because his genes were well represented among the captive giraffe
population in European zoos. But that explanation did not satisfy animal
rights activists who had mounted a furious last-minute campaign to save him.
Besides nearly 30,000 online signatures from those who did not want Marius
killed, Copenhagen Zoo officials received death threats after they turned
down adoption offers from other zoos, as well as a bid of 500,000 euros, or
$682,000, from an individual who was willing to take Marius in.
Marius was born in captivity at the Copenhagen Zoo, where there are seven
reticulated giraffes, a species native to Africa. The species is not
endangered, but it faces threats from habitat loss and hunting.
“A giraffe is not a pet; it’s not like a dog or cat that becomes part of
the family,” Bengt Holst, the zoo’s scientific director, said by telephone
. “It is a wild animal.”
Mr. Holst said he had decided against sending Marius to another zoo because
doing so would have opened the door to inbreeding and potentially removed a
place for a giraffe whose genetic makeup was more valuable in terms of
future offspring in captive breeding programs. He seemed caught off guard by
the public protest, calling it “totally out of proportion.”
“People said, ‘If you kill the giraffe, I’ll kill you,’ ” he said. “It
’s insane.”
“We don’t do it to be cruel; we do it to ensure a healthy population,” Mr
. Holst added. “You have to breed them to make sure the population is
renewed.”
As for individual offers, he said giraffes were social animals and could not
be kept in isolation.
Giraffes are allowed to breed in captivity because it is part of their
natural behavior in the wild, Mr. Holst said, even though breeding can
produce what he called “a surplus animal.”
“As long as they are with us,” he said, “we want them to have a good life
, with as much natural behavior as possible.”
Marius was not fully grown, Mr. Holst said: He could have grown another
three feet or so.
Officials used a shotgun rather than an injection to kill the giraffe so
that his meat would be safe for the zoo’s predator animals to eat. After an
autopsy that was open to visitors as an educational opportunity, parts of
Marius’s remains were fed to the zoo’s lions — and there is some left
over.
“We still have meat for lions, tigers and leopards,” Mr. Holst said. “It
’s just meat that can be fed to every animal.”

长颈鹿肉谁敢卖啊，没经过食品卫生部门检验，吃出问题怎么办，而且是近亲繁殖，估
计是傻鹿，人吃了后果堪忧。

小孩对小动物和昆虫是很残忍，我小时候没少杀癞蛤蟆。
但是对真正血腥场面还是害怕的。
