breeding program. the young animal was healthy, but he was put down. despite the protests that came from around the world, shot dead, ma, gills, people love raps, murderer germans is also have what they call surplus animals. some are called and it s likely that will happen. there are heat as with the to concern been if this is the future we re looking at, you just have to accept that a nature life and death go hand in hand. i talk to somebody and how will this affect the public image of says, ah, let these lions and papa tire are fed 6 times a week to day felt the serv goats from the paintings in breeding director, azalea habit will be attending the slaughter. is tough. healthy and title i decide which animals get to live on. so it s only right that i sometimes do the job too. even if it s not pleasant but, but i put the african peg me goats on their list of animals to transfer to other zeus. but no other zoom needs them. at almost 4 months old, the young males have to be separated from the herd. otherwise they might soon try to mate with their mothers. we were given permission to found something that most sues are reluctant to show animals, not just being born in captivity, but sometimes also being killed, even though they re in good health. with this, not us after this do also has predator animals. of course, if we don t use these animals to feed them, we d have to order sides of beef from somewhere and it s unlikely that those cows were treated humanely. so this is the way to go as well as being mac meadows. veterinarians thus get higher, will be killing the goats in the familiar surroundings of their own pen. the golf gun as a device also used to stun cows and sheep before they are slaughtered for human consumption. oh, my god, the angle on the sky. ok. the gun is used to stun the animal by firing a metal bolt into its brain. the staff then cuts at throat and the kid leads to death. bulletin so typically calls young goats from the petting zoo once or twice a year. which runs on guzman force. you re glad once it s over, because of course, it s not something we enjoy deciding which animals to slaughter as a moral dilemma. zoom, visitors tend to prefer that the animals but to others are ones that also end up on our plates. but as zebra, there you have back and so director ana loveland want the public to question their gut feeling was susan. she s not there. typical is that she s not in the big enclosure cause an a la garza so she s got to be somewhere else. or maybe in the stable on her own we downsizing. how s it? she s been ejected from the heard had all the flu happen. to know. in recent weeks, the male zebra has been bullying a female called charlotte. to look over that, if we take a look from the side. yes, there she is. alissa alissa just because the male zebra has been kicking and biting the female charlotte has to be moved. is sylvia. have, i can t find her a new home. the zebra might also end up as lying feed. so far, this hasn t become a common practice and other german zoos. steve, i nigger is on here, so some of my colleagues are afraid of scaring off visitors. dimension. there s this idea of zoos as a kind of cuddly, perfect little world, like in a disney movie where everyone s happy. allah cushion a world where there are only births, but there is no debt, no showed which tablets would kinda go over that. but we need to talk about reality instead of creating this idealized and unrealistic world for people just so they feel happy. as proficient the director would like to see more realistic conditions where visitors get to understand nature cycles of life and death. but is that likely to happen to protect the sensibility of the public most suit? could they are predators anonymous, meet with no head or fur and chopped up into small pieces? i say i have bag is available to talk to visitors who are present on days when called animals are fed to predators. home. oh i how long have they been dead? i thought since about quarter of 9 this morning. one for the for no, in our yeah, i look on foot and isn t long there from our headings you yet so and until to day they ve had a really lovely life there enough on his name was on more devices. oh would she knows where i sausages come from and yet is good and that s what lions eat. oh, good service, part of nature right now by not everyone can cope sharleen of a do toe and her godsa. noah made a quick exit from the lion s feeding time. damn good next season. social kit give is moved up. you seemed pretty affected by what you saw and were shocked. ranked funding bazooka. xena listed. yeah. yeah, no, no, no. it was pretty scared. right. for last one and it s a bit frightening. does the whole animals being fed to others? tiers on guns and you see the blood till monday? just blue would no oliver mustn t flash lions need to eat meat. meaning animals are normally we feed our carnivores meet, we get from a slaughter house just like you get your steak from a butcher to mitigate on kit. and then since there s no connection to the animal, it doesn t upset you. it s the civic from this does upset us, it upsets us to beat us food once, not be, but we feel we need to show a part of the cycle of nature as a business due to something. it s hiding this wednesday, not that nature. it s horrible, but we enjoy the taste of it the smack in the lions due to rush. i m oh no one says to so vista s fists were willing to risk upsetting a visitor or 2 because it s important. ah, most people learned from what they ve seen and accepted as part of nature, and thus it would be unnatural to keep it hidden, foolish as we have a will naturally to sophistic last minuses, which animals are called answers. and why? over the years, zeus have learned how to provide optimal care for animals and captivity, and more and more animals born and captivity are surviving and reaching a ripe old age. that means that zeus are running out of space. further south and germany, the daily routine and nerve boxes, corella sanctuary, begins with a contraceptive breakfast, original crunch markets, the regular pill for women were we inserted into a chunk of banana and the ape eat, said over the mills. zookeeper hm. one also had ministers. the pull in the morning before the girls had outside to their enclosure at the same time every day. and we will come here how be will not you? 21 days on the pill followed by a week without just like with humans swim good. catalino. you ll both be going out in a 2nd. now my has welcomed the birth of 2 baby girl as in the last 3 years, the male gorilla thomas have now passed on his jeans to enough offspring. that s why the contraceptives have been introduced these days a primate born in captivity as no longer headline news. you flatter, if you are blind, truly, just in. that asked the oven with one baby that demands in humble facebook and m t . m ha coggan baked leslie. evade heavily kat most young animals used to be caught in the wild. blue birds were so rare that only humans were entrusted with carrying for them. no, i ve been hi, ghoulish base in a few hobbies. but in the other 20 baby, neat good of all who believed this was well intended, but had unintended side effects. young animals reared by humans often lost many of their natural parental instincts. no max to director, dag anchor remembers the old days. as a boy in the 1970s, he enjoyed being a playmate for the young apes and the clearfield zoo where his father was the director. today doug anchor is also vice president of the drum resume association. he s worried about how animals like his to infant male guerrillas will be ferrying and 15 or 20 years. each group of females needs only one mature male for breeding. so these infant males aren t needed for the breeding program. doesn t ruins or fraud on the india. these are issues that can be emotionally overwhelming for people who work on the animal submitted in. good. none of us would be able to just say fine, we ll put him down to morrow. as it is the cylinders loosely off on. so we have to arrive at a solution that we re able to tolerate and live with your mom. this is all foolish on releasing them into the wild as currently not an option. a shrinking natural habitat means that guerrillas are at risk of extinction. when was askance holly columns, after taking it to the extreme, you could say we re going to start breeding them because the growing number of all the animals pushes the population pyramid up on their steel, it becomes leaf shaped. and eventually you have 0 at the stem, or that meaning no new offspring or long lot. so the species is effectively extinct long before the last animal has died. and it s illusory to just say we have so many animals here. don t know if they re unable to reproduce them, the species is dead or flexible, safest honesty, arthur thought that anchor sees his zeal as a kind of sacred art preserving species that are dying out to the while. but an art has a limited number of animals on board and can only stay afloat if it produces future generations. irony as one of only 35 female asian lions still registered as potential reading stuck in european says you re in, she tends to hide away. when we arrive on lake star one, does she see the back as does he go to school? we learned that some call it i. i said she s marching us circle up until august 2021. the lions compound also included a mail called so bali, when he grew older and became sterile, the director raised the possibility of having him put down and replaced with another man. so barley was one of the serious biggest attractions, however, and the idea of him being killed provoked a backlash from both the public and the media. mickleson covey, lutheran oldham shall to barley, time to bother you don t problem. we did not, whoops, club this needs to weeks. dish in slips inside it was does to you today. irony is now alone. so barley has been euthanized because he was sacon and pain says tug anchor thus and powder brushwood offer. and richard, the little prime example of the dilemmas you can face with conservation measures involving a highly endangered species. besides those values on that, we have the job of preserving and nurturing a healthy population elsewhere. doff, which means looking extremely closely at using the potential when i m till i know football, if there are only $35.00 fertile female lions available, and one of them is paired with an infertile male need. wish. and when we have to vacate that spot of belief, good. so we were really happy that he died on this big wandered on ohio for those locust oldness. that s really the yes. in the kind of zoom that doug ankle would like to see the lifespan of an individual animal comes 2nd to the survival of a species. german animal welfare laws have strict standards for calling a healthy animal, killing an animal in order to eat it, meets that standard. and so does killing ones do animal to feed it to others. an animal no longer meeting the needs of a breeding program does not meet the legal standard for calling. germany s association of zoo operators is advocating for those laws to be changed. lucille, industry and few fumes it. there are a lot of situations today where there is no good solution for us, for our conscience befitting little, but we need solutions that make sense in the long term, or even if they can sometimes cause us a lot of pain. hazel s and us on said was if a lesson does so, visitors will also have to stomach that. dustin, every one will or we have fewer species. there is one country where the set up and visited by dog anchor is already a reality. denmark in 2014 copenhagen zoo, euthanized marius the draft because his jeans were already well represented and breeding programs. nosy had heard that could accommodate him. veterinarian, mad bateson had been present at mario s his birthday. and was now the man who pulled the trigger when he was 2 years old. oh yes, i will. i won t be too long to screw. young patterson also publicly dissected the animal in front of visitors. i think will avoid. they re about to 8 years on people still regularly ask him about marius. so this is our commissary, where we prepare the food for the animals and, and actually mario s was dissected right here. and um, and then later on, fed to our lives. looks little bit different today unless, unless this kind of public anatomy class is not unusual in denmark. all the people who came to watch her 1st of all, paid the entrance fee and then secondly, decided to go behind the scenes to watch this. so nobody were inadvertently subjected to this, they chose to be here and 10 though. lot of children here. and in fact the children were the ones asking the best questions. matt spat, awesome. as now, the zoos director the zeal now has 2 new giraffe cats, mary s, his half sister, and a young bull. it s unclear whether the young bull will be needed in the breeding program. the same situation that marius found himself in this constant dynamic so, so you never know right from the beginning. but after a while it became, it became clear and, and that at the time that he was eventually shot, it was because he was now fighting with father. just like was seen the rhine, us behind me here in this time to moving with many species, there s only room for one, mature a male in a group. this young rhino will soon be moved to another suit where he ll be given his own. heard that option wasn t available for marius, so he was called and fed to the says lions. a few months later the lions were also euthanized. what might sound like? poor planning is actually part of a strategy. the lions and copenhagen live and upright together with their young men is, isn t germany also use contraceptives to limit the number of surplus animals. but there are potential side effects including neutral tumors and permanent and fertility. ha ha, ha ha, ha ha. the lions here only produce offspring every 2 or 3 years, just like in nature. and that s only possible because animals are cold. i think that basically quality of life is more important than quantity of life. and an animal doesn t plan ahead a line doesn t know how long his life is going to be, but it does know how the life feels. and i think a lion pride is much more functional and much more natural if they have youngsters . these young lions are scheduled for transfer to another zoo, but around half of the males born here, end up being put down when they re about to the agent, which in the wild they would be expelled from their pride. that context something the copenhagen so explains teds visitors. i don t think danes are any any, are harder or tougher than the germans. and i think they re more hunters in germany of percentage wise. so no, i think this is, this is a p r a question. this is a something, and of course live the legislation. it comes into it but, but this is something that we need to consider very carefully. why do we need, what do we need to do and then and then do what is right. but who decides what is right, this calling worms, insects and mice? what about animals that humans, he too, or other similar animals? what about animals that would be shot by hunters when humans destroy their natural habitat? what guidelines should we follow? and why? ah, it s a debate that is welcome to your info pata, the zoos director azalea havoc as looking for the female zebra that has been attacked and driven out of the herd by the mail and needs a new home another s who has now said it might take charlotte but right now, it s too hot to transfer her islam luck. we ll have to find an alternative solution driving overnight from it would be great for her to find a group where she ll be okay from missouri to list. now that s the idea. so sometimes exchange animals in situations like this or to prevent and breeding. finding a taker for a female tends to be easier than with males. okay, an elephant cow tica is pregnant. yeah, those good veterinarians, as care to hire as performing an ultrasound. but they will only find out the elephant baby s sex when it s born. i be here and stand a female would be good news for the breeding registry. the number of elephants born ensues isn t high enough to preserve the species of it looks good. but the number of balls is already close to the maximum of 8 rather than i m looking at the head and the trunk gotta the reading registry provides su, director on the love once was a running record of all 190 african elephants captain sue s across europe the gender balance among the older 2 elephants is similar to what seen in nature the females far out number the males. that s because many were born in the wild at a time when zeus seized the chance to acquire females. while that was still permitted among elephants born in captivity, however, the gender balance is now equal. and that s a problem that s because in the wild elephants live in matriarchal herds in which the females spend their entire lives together, males eventually leave their group. many of them die at a young age chica had her last offspring a girl. 2 years ago. the entire herd supported her during the birth elephants, how strong family bonds and are extremely social animals. they enjoy playing with the young halves in the heard a complete halter breeding programs in order to prevent excess males could destroy their social structures. so those are looking for compromised solutions and valuables. the good one idea is to extend the intervals between birds, but ultimately we re just extending the process where we at some point have to take action. but elephants live to the age of 4050 or 60 years old to ashad. in recent years, zeus have been established in groups of young elephant balls to take in surplus males. those areas of africa were elephants can still live in safety from poachers have no room for additional males. it s only a matter of time until zeus run out of capacity. and what happens then. no legs to director dad anchor is looking for a solution 1st to and think a relas, which are now registered as surplus animals. that quest has brought him to the dutch city of calcutta, along with the silver backs and females. and i assume there are 2 guerrillas that wouldn t exist in the wild, castrated males gases from there it is pretty bizarre. was in the seeing them grow to the size of a regular mail while staying extremely then live. and that s not feminine either because adult females actually get rather fat. so this is a quite unique phenotypic now, does i in the field trip? did i did the males were castrated so that their father wouldn t attack them, and they could remain in the group. monitor doug anchors meeting with patrick fund via the biologist as a senior advisor to the wildlife conservation group set up by pioneering primatologist jane got our visitors breeding director, email plans also join. so he and his team have been contacting an experiment. they re integrating a new silver back into the group of castrated adult males. that was the biggest worry him. he was her because we re with the introduction of the new silverback. oh, because we were afraid because they re the same age and maybe years competition. it was nothing else than a female really, for the silver back are which the new silver back doesn t see the castro males as rivals. the procedure was carried out before they d reach puberty, which explains their abnormal development. looks like chrome. it really to provide a healthy, social group or surplus males. others. those are likely to begin castrating younger ls in a perfect world, but like fan van would prefer that no primates live in captivity, but the prospects for apes, no wild aren t rosy ether. moving with them from bloom is says it s in filter. in the problem is that there will be no guerrillas left in 40 or 50 years time and on paper that they do still exist, but in populations that are no longer sustainable. since the seed ladders also does, it looks like the reserve populations and zoos which still have a healthy balance will be crucial for any attempts to preserve apes and the while. while we are on the loan for the socum. we think at us the source zoos really do have a responsibility to plan ahead for what to do with the animals in the future. thus mark, an artificial mortality is an absolute no go here. oh that something i would never support. it really does me. i from to states which truth to lord, i m afraid, will reach the point where we have to say do our ethical standards apply to the species or the individual animal? how do we reconcile that with reality struby to susan? unlike this silverback, the young gorilla males and nurse back will never had a group of females, but castrating them means they will be able to grow old and the crew fairly worn into. what is the tradition compo, missed, of course, it s a compromise approach. and our overall conservation concepts will have to incorporate a lot of compromises with natural conditions, social skills. so those little jubal altov zeus has spent years trying to provide animals in captivity with a more natural environment. now so many species have become fertile enough. that sues have to use castration or contraception, or they have to take a previously unthinkable step, making sure that the mortality rate ensues as similar to the wild offering but better. the ostracized female zebra will be spared the fate of being fed to the lions. charlotte is going to be picked up today. the plan is to assure entered the trailer box as soon as the connecting door opened its missing was indeed uncle mister hall. we make our exit and leave her alone. was he daniel with us? garden? good. yes. so you go into the box, it s if need be, that won t happen. yeah. so it d be the absolute worst case scenario. ross, case, river dasa, wasted me dusty and remember she might come back at you with a real farm. it. so put your whole body behind and also non material proper for, for promise. and then it s time will see anything. so you have ex jarvis to shut the door as soon as the z present side, the trailer. ah, charlotte has a 6 hour drive ahead of her to her new home and bavaria and isn t by. it s not for me. so i m not in this case. it s a nicer outcome than feeding her to other animals because i know she still got most of her life ahead of her lunch. she ll have offspring and will be able to raise her own young and county that wasn t possible here because she still young and the stallion threw her out of the herd not. and before that she hadn t reached full sexual maturity of high school. so that life is now beginning for her, which is great health machine. as a homeless man, long enough is on tier. there you have back, wants to give her animals a happy life in captivity, and the company of their own kind. that s why she and anna love can see calling healthy individuals as a price worth paying, even though it s painful, especially when it comes to certain species, flight offish, all fluid us is miss. maybe i m just hoping that i ll be retired before it comes to that. uh huh. but sadly, i know the, i believe that it s the only option for sustainably managing endangered, and small populations trying to populate sworn in british nar hodges miniature. and so can buy. it will allow us to ensure reproduction and other animal welfare priorities this week. that s why it s important for us to talk about it and for people to give some thought to the issue. it s deborah knocking. for many visitors sous have been an idealized world, a place of refuge. how will they respond if su operators are forced to confront harsh realities? with painful solutions. ah g m o lab africa. interventions in the genetic material of plums, i m animals, high risk experiments sponsored by bill gates. are they the solution in the fight against hunger and diseases or just another profitable business? africa, g. amo s and western interests. in 15 minutes, oh d, w d co, india. before and after cleaning the water tanks and come on by toward the blocking to make a positive contribution to cycle the hot bodies organizing engine. manny kennedy has managed to unite in the southern indian region because they all care about water. he says he won t stop setting new goals. so he took in 90 minutes on d. w. ah ah, this is d, w. use live from bullitt, an unprecedented move against the former us president. the congressional committee investigating the january 6th attack on the capital votes unanimously to recommend criminal charges against donald trump. among the 3 counts inside.
