The Odense Zoo publicly dissected a year-old lion on Thursday,pulling out its blood-red organs to show a few hundred people including children.The event met with a lot of criticism outside on Denmark.

Officials at Odense Zoo in central Denmark said the gory performance was educational, teaching children about the anatomy of a lion. Wearing headsets, they butchered the carcass of the year-old feline with blood-soaked gloves, slicing off its head and pulling out the intestines, heart and liver.

Some animal rights activists sharply criticised Odense Zoo, 170 kilometers west of Copenhagen, for killing the lion along with two siblings in February to avoid inbreeding as is custom among many zoos in Europe.

In February 2014, the Copenhagen Zoo faced international protests after a giraffe was killed, dissected and fed to lions in front of children.

According to me,this is outrageous! Its a zoo,it ought to respect the animals and not find answers in killing! 

On being criticized Mikael Soenderskov, one of the Danes defending the dissection, wrote.“Life isn’t the Disney Channel. Get over it ...” 

So you do whatever you like and get away with it because life isn't a Disney channel?

 Please sign this petition and make the Odense Zoo stop such acts.

Its highly disturbing and shocking to read such articles in the newspaper.
