why can't they be just neutered if not deemed suitable for breeding?
on a side note - the way the zoo operates is the exact example of the government regulated life - if you are considered unsuitable - you are being eliminated.
it is post Orwellian.
Is the giraffe a tranny?
So its fine to euthanized millions of stray dogs & cats every year. It is fine to slaughter millions of head of livestock. But kill 2 giraffes (in a humane way) and suddenly it is all horrors?
WTH? They have only so much room for the giraffes. If they kept 2 males they would be fighting all the time. This way none of the animals is in pain. And I am quite sure the way they put the giraffe down is far less painful than being hunted and killed by a lion.
Find some real reason to be indignant.

did you read how it actually happened and what added to the outrage?
zoo takes animals from their natural habitat by force.it is supposed to preserve animals and help them - so your comparison with stray dogs and others does not apply, as if they do not have space for the animal - they should not get one. Period.

Oh, and if you had read the article you would have seen that they have two males. They are trying to help the species by breeding them. That won't happen with two males.

Funny, but some of those whining about this are the first ones to condemn the "tree huggers" when they try to actually preserve the habitats.
Yes, the giraffe was put down with a bolt-gun. A head shot is the most humane method of putting an animal down, since the brain is destroyed before paid can be registered. They also did it that way so that the giraffe's flesh could be fed to it's natural predators.
The REASON there are breeding programs in zoos is because of the lack of habitat and the destruction of so many species in the wild. How about spending some energy stopping that instead of trying to make a valid breeding program sound bad by crying about it like a little girl who just saw Bambi's mother killed by the hunter.

how about if some zoo does not have resources to take care of 3 giraffes, they just keep the 2 they have and stop being greedy - oh, they want to breed, they want to have little giraffes ( and make more money on it).
if they are such "tree huggers" - stick to the initial task and forget about money. even if it is hard.
