Thank you to all 25,000 of you for signing this petition. It has gone viral and coverage of it has featured in not only my own publication, The Steeple Times, but also in The Sun, the Mirror, and Unilad.

Now, we sadly share more disgusting news in the form of Merelize van der Merwe putting up a video (viewer caution advised) of the moment she killed the harmless giraffe for her own pleasure.

The torturous minutes between her first and second shot must have distressed this poor, beautiful animal so much, so today I again urge you all to share this petition as widely as possible to get even more signatures. Let's stop this monster for once and for all and let's make Nick Clegg, Mark Zuckerberg and all else at Facebook ashamed of themselves for allowing this vile content on their medium.
