Think about it: every zoo in the world that houses lions, tigers, and other carnivorous creatures must be slaughtering animals to sustain them. Cows, sheep, Maybe things like goats or deer. If someone can give me one, just one, valid reason as to why Marius has a greater right to life than any of those animals? Do I have to give them names? Maybe if I call the deer I saw a lion munching on at a safari park last summer "Timothy" and post pictures of him being mauled alongside a picture of bambi?

They killed an animal and fed it to zoo lions. The hysterics are baffling.

Well sadly ,cows ,sheep and pigs are bred for food,I don't think wild animals are,they are placed in zoos for humans pleasure and supposedly conservation.
