You'd think there are zoos around the world that would be happy to have baboons?




Is it just me or is it weird they use the word "sacrifice." That implies it wasn't done for pragmatic reasons, but as some kind of offering to a deity?

WHy didn’t they contact the Democrat party? They’re always looking for the next Dem Congressional ‘rock star’ to join forces with Pocohontas and AOC.

“Rising tensions amongst baboons”

Which is exactly how the global elites see it when the people of their realms start to speak their minds.

Why don’t they try to raise funds by selling baboon BBQ sandwiches for say $100 or $200 a sandwich?

I thought they might be referring to leftist politicians the way I do. Get rid of the baboons does not make me immediately think of zoo animals.

euthanised 12 baboons on Tuesday because of a lack of space for them, ending a saga rooted in concerns that it lacked space to house them due to an increase in animals

Lack of space for animals

How did this get reported?

If you put a bunch of weasels in with them, they'd probably end up offing themselves on their own. Win-win.

Some animals reproduce well in zoos. There is always an overabundance of them.

Lions fall in that category. Perhaps Baboons as well.

All things have their limits.

I imagine there are quite a few places where the baboons could be released among the human population and fit right in.

Guess Baboons need more Lebensraum.

Who gave the zoo officials the right to decide who lives and dies?

Should have just handed out some nunchuks and let the baboons work it out among themselves.

“It has been said that it examined offers to take in some of the animals but was unable to make any of them work, according to CNN.”
