Stenbaek Bro said a significant part of EAZA membership is that the zoos don’t own the animals themselves, but govern them, and therefore can’t sell them to anyone outside the organization that doesn’t follow the same set of rules
so they killed an animal they didn't own?

i bet they had trouble finding a zoo that followed the same set of rules.

they wanted to chop up an innocent animal. we get it.

i apologize i am not a lawyer, a vet, or whoever i need to be in order to be justifed at feeling disgust, horror, and a little anger at the crassness of this action.
