This is pretty disturbing to say the least.
Denmark zoo asks people to donate their pets as food for its predators https://t.co/jy8NA20fO8 pic.twitter.com/T7b6itkvJt

A zoo in Denmark is asking for donations of small pets as food for its predators.
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 zoo in northern Denmark explained in a Facebook post that “if you have a healthy animal that needs to be given away for various reasons, feel free to donate it to us.”
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 behavior, nutrition and well-being of our predators,” the zoo said.
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.
So, they aren't asking for your cats and dogs, but more like your rabbits, chickens or furry little guinea pigs. It's still so sad.

This is horrid and I can't imagine handing over a pet to be eaten alive. Why have a zoo if you can't provide for these animals? @CopenhagenZoo shameful!! https://t.co/J7UjYMmutM

It does seem a bit macabre.

The best use of the meme.
That's one way to keep your zoo running. https://t.co/Ug9NK8u3TO

Every time the cat jumps on counter when I’m doing something in the kitchen I will think about this. https://t.co/1IONZrGI1n

Poor kitty!
Denmark never really recovered from the Nazi occupation.

They’re ghouls.
The Danes and the Dutch are just Evil Incarnate these days. Don’t go there. They’ll eat you, too. https://t.co/c7civ8NSK9
That's terrifying.
Better idea, save the pets & instead, use murderers, rapists, & pedophiles. https://t.co/qJSxkgu5kV

Much more humanitarian.
That's a great initiative to garner more media attention.

Poor management; but great entertainment for the neutral spectator.
Make the people poor so they can't afford pets, then have the dying lion eat the pets.
It's almost Soylent Green isn't it
What about Liberal family members?
