A Danish zoo, Aalborg Zoo, has launched a unique initiative to collect unwanted pets, including chickens, rabbits, guinea pigs, and even horses. The zoo aims to use the donated animals as a source of food for its predators, promoting a more natural food chain. In accordance with local regulations, all donated pets will be humanely euthanized before being used to feed the predators, ensuring a sustainable approach to animal care.
