The guardian http://www.theguardian.com/world/201...sk-denmark-zoo
If you are a giraffe and your name is Marius, now might be a good time to leave Denmark. Days after the euthanasia of a healthy young giraffe at Copenhagen zoo sparked controversy around the world, a second Danish zoo has announced that it is considering a similar fate for another giraffe – also named Marius. Jyllands Park zoo, in western Denmark, currently has two male giraffes, but has been approved to participate in the European breeding programme. If zookeepers manage to acquire a female giraffe, seven-year-old Marius will have to make way. Like his namesake in Copenhagen, the giraffe is considered unsuitable for breeding, and the zoo said there was a high risk that Marius would have to be put down as it would be difficult to find him a new home.
This is the same excuse as the zoo in Copenhagen first used and yet a home was found and other offer's were also made to save his life but the pleas to save him were simply ignored ...

is wrong with these people apart from being sick in the head ... there is something seriously wrong with these people ...
