if theyre in the state they can be rehomed then rehome them

There’s way more pet surrenders, etc than there are adopters. Pets WILL get put to sleep.

these animals should be in an environment where this is not a necessity to ask the public for their pets to feed them!! most people debating this probably feed their pets biscuits and bread. I’m sure a predator like this is dying for a McDonalds ass version of its diet

I see you’re one of those who didn’t read the article before spouting off?

“In zoos, we have a responsibility to imitate the natural food chain of the animals — in terms of both animal welfare and professional integrity,” Aalborg Zoo said in a post on social media.

The zoo in northern Denmark said that chickens, rabbits and guinea pigs were an important part of the diet of its predators, which need “whole prey,” reminiscent of what they would hunt in the wild.

“If you have a healthy animal that has to leave here for various reasons, feel free to donate it to us. The animals are gently euthanized by trained staff and are afterwards used as fodder. That way, nothing goes to waste — and we ensure natural behavior, nutrition and well-being for our predators,” Aalborg Zoo said.
