Please help save this Giraffe

Ken · 8th February 2014, 20:54

Please help save this 18 month old Giraffe, only a few hours to go before it's killed with a bolt gun and fed to the lions.

Please read http://www.independent.co.uk/news/wo...s-9116786.html

Please follow the link on the above website and sign the petition

I don't normally post appeals to sign petitions but I am so disgusted by this so called zoo that I am breaking my own rules. Please sign if you can

Thanks

Ken

the link is for a different petition, about killing of elephants,just a horrific, but not the one you mention.

Disgraceful.

I,m sure another zoo could take him.

Will be signing the petition Ken.

The link is in the story not the big link on the right. It's about three quarters of the way down. Here it is http://www.thepetitionsite.com/528/6...-bolt-gun-now/

Thanks for caring

Absolutely abhorrent. Zoos are absolutely unnecessary and outdated and need to be closed. I do not accept any argument that zoos prevent species from becoming extinct. If this is the case then extinction beats captivity. Poor creature, I hope it does have a reprieve or at least a more humane death. Cruel Bar Stewards.

The zoo kept this quiet and as far as I can make out this only became news today. The Giraffe is being killed tomorrow, don't put it off until tomorrow please sign as soon as you can

Thanks

Ken
