Aalborg Zoo in Denmark is asking the public to donate unwanted healthy pets like chickens, rabbits, and guinea pigs to feed its predators, including Eurasian lynx, lions, and tigers. The zoo emphasizes that this method mimics the animals' natural diet and that the animals are humanely euthanized. Horse donations are also accepted, with potential tax benefits for owners. This practice, the zoo states, is common in Denmark and helps provide a more natural diet for their carnivores.
