Zoo asks people to donate their pets for food for its predators
A zoo in Denmark has shocked its Facebook followers by asking for any donations of small, healthy pets for their apex predators. The zoo says the initiative is to help 'mimic the natural food chain' A zoo in Denmark is asking for owners of small, healthy pets to donate their furry friends as food for its predators - and people are in favour of the idea. The Aalborg zoo said it is trying to" mimic the natural food chain" of the animals housed there "for the sake of both animal welfare and professional integrity" and offers assurances the pets will be"gently euthanized" by trained staff. The visitor attraction in northern Denmark explained in a Facebook post: "If you have a healthy animal that needs to be given away for various reasons, feel free to donate it to us." It comes after a group of children 'chased a sheep off a cliff' before turning on shocked passers-by. The zoo points to guinea pigs, rabbits and chickens as possible donations. After being euthanized, the animals will be used as fodder, the zoo said. "That way, nothing goes to waste - and we ensure natural behaviour, nutrition and well-being of our predators," the zoo said. Commenters were appalled by the call out. One man commented: "There is a deeply perverse and degrading mindset behind this sick mindset in, a terrible trend of indifference towards animals has spread in Denmark and this posts supports this backwards ideology. Imagine giving away your pet/animal as fodder, it hardly gets more disrespectful and nasty than that." However others seemed to agree with the waste-not want-not approach. One Facebook user said: "Good initiative rather than being thrown in the trash when they are not cute anymore, or the neighbour is tired of your hens suddenly getting roosters that are noisy and illegal within the city limits." Another added: "Wooow you guys are brave. It probably won't take many minutes for angry comments, but I think it's a good idea. I would love for my animal to come in handy. Unfortunately it hates transportation, so I won't offer it on my last trip. Can you use animals that HAVE been euthanized at a vet?" The online call for pet donations is accompanied by a picture of a wildcat baring its teeth with its mouth wide open and a link to the zoo's website, noting the facility also is interested in receiving horses. The zoo, which could not immediately be reached for additional details, does not list other pets or animals as possible donations. The full post read: "Chickens, rabbits and guinea pigs make up an important part of the diet of our predators - especially in the European locust, which needs whole prey, which is reminiscent of what it would naturally hunt in the wild. "In zoos we have a responsibility to imitate the natural food chain of the animals - in terms of both animal welfare and professional integrity . "If you have a healthy animal that has to leave here for various reasons, feel free to donate it to us. The animals are gently euthanized by trained staff and are afterwards used as fodder. That way, nothing goes to waste - and we ensure natural behavior, nutrition and well-being of our predators."

Giant rat size of a small cat discovered in UK home
The potentially record-breaking rat in UK terms - said to measure approximately 22 inches long from nose to tail - was discovered recently in a property in Normanby, Teesside by a pest controller that had been called to investigate. The Local Democracy Reporting Service (LDRS) has been told the dead mammal, a photograph of which has been shared on social media, had been nesting in the home. It has been likened to a 'sewer rat' and, while it is unknown how it accessed the property, rats had been reported in the area in back alleys nearby. In a Facebook post, Eston ward councillors David Taylor and Stephen Martin called on Redcar and Cleveland Council to get a grip of the problem, working with other agencies. They said they wanted to see a 'full vermin survey and treatment plan' implemented in council-owned areas across the borough and joint action also involving businesses, landlords and social housing providers. How to get rid of these common garden pests Cllr Taylor also described public bins in parts of Eston and Whale Hill 'overflowing', with shops, particularly takeaways, dumping items in them and providing 'easy food' for rodents. Overgrown vegetation on public land, providing hiding spaces for rats, was another aspect highlighted. He said the council had to take the problem seriously with sightings increasing. Rats can spread disease to humans and are also known to breed quickly. Cllr Taylor said: 'The longer this is ignored, the worse it will get. It is a growing problem.' He said the rat caught was 'massive', and likened to a small cat or dog, and he had been told by people working in pest control a typical sewer rat could get that big. Native wild animals in the UK As with many other local authorities, Redcar and Cleveland Council no longer offers a pest control solution to private householders, although it retains a full-time officer to tackle issues on council land. Meanwhile, not all social housing providers automatically offer such a service, or if they do it is only on a discretionary basis. Cllr Taylor praised the council's 'workforce on the ground doing an absolutely amazing job', but said more direction was needed from the top of the organisation on the matter. He said he accepted the extensive action being called for would 'cost a fortune', but the problem arising was also a health risk.
