Funny.
Try being an animal shut in a stall when a fire breaks out - and imagine what it feels like if you’ve personally cared for that animal for years.
What if it was your favorite dog? I’ve seen hardened vets and vet techs who work with ‘mere’ research animals cry when an animal had to be put down.
I cried when my beloved cat and companion for over a decade died, but did not need grief counseling.
This is horrible!
I agree about loving our animals. I feel awful and I didn’t even know the giraffes. A truly horrific way to go.
