Re: Danish zoo shoots giraffe

Re: Danish zoo shoots giraffe
Very sad that this seems to be their solution ... Death of an unwanted animal in their care makes me wonder how they can call themselves caring as they really seem to believe their is no other way ... IMO

A straw poll of Danish friends confirms this view. One tells me about a school trip to see a wolf getting dissected. Another tells me that his nine-year-old niece is such a fan, she asked to see a snake slit open for her birthday. Animal autopsies are so popular in Denmark that institutions often have to hold two-a-day in school holidays to meet demand.

Re: Danish zoo shoots giraffe
Do schools still dissect rats?

Re: Danish zoo shoots giraffe
My secondary school certainly did, but that was the early 90s.
Apparently not so much now http://www.telegraph.co.uk/education...ety-fears.html

In the early 60s my school didn't dissect rats but we did dissect mice, frogs, fish and earthworms.

Re: Danish zoo shoots giraffe
I seem to remember dismantling, dissection would be too elegant a term, a frog in biology lessons in the late sixties.

I remember enjoying the set-up that had to be done before we were allowed to make the first cut. Pinning down the subject onto the dissection board always appealed to my ghoulish nature with my forte being drawing in great detail the end results.
Looking back I was a weird child.

Re: Danish zoo shoots giraffe
What with the Russian Police shooting a brown bear which got into a super market.
Now we have a German pig who shot a 40 year old Elephant for a game trophy. He paid $40,000 for the disgusting act.
