[Bret44]

Crazy story here. Angry stakeholders of a floundering Zoo in China feed a live donkey to the tigers in the zoo. Link to video in the link:

No one gets mad when a rat is fed to a snake

Because its not the ******* donkeys fault that they were disgruntled. We should throw those **** suckers in there. Maybe we could just equate that to people getting nabbed on the Serengeti.

This wasnt a Zoo-type feeding. This was just a group of humans being ********.

Probably the same group of people that don't see a problem with boiling dogs alive.

What about Lobsters?

The protest was odd. Were they trying to drum up business? Were they reducing the zoo's operating costs by eliminating a meal? Were they trying to hurt the zoo's image (cuz that would be counterproductive to getting their money)?

For that matter, was the donkey an exhibit in the zoo or did they bring it in with them. If they brought it with them, did they sneak it in underneath a trench coat or dress it up in human clothes to fool the ticket taker?

Granted.

Well...this one wasn't anyway. From the article:

"Although the incident with the donkey was not sanctioned, zoos in other parts of China regularly feed live animals to tigers for the amusement of the public," the newspaper writes. "Guests visiting one tiger sanctuary in north-east China's Heilongjiang province can pay to have a live cow or chicken hurled into the tiger enclosure."

Jesus, thats kind of ****** up. Is this the gladiatorial arena?

Video is pretty tame compared to your typical nature show. What I want to know is how the hell they were able to back a truck up to the tiger pen in the middle of the zoo? Cause China I guess.

Maybe it's just me, but I see a difference between boiling a water insect and a mammal.
