It's Was Just A Giraffe


Let me help you get mad about something other than a giraffe, internet. If you're sensitive stop reading. I'm known for getting bothered by shit that doesn't concern me. You can assume that I have no other worries in my life or that I have too much time on my hands. Honestly, all my shit is being handled by me so that leaves me with time to bitch about people bitching about a giraffe that was killed. Its a giraffe. No one would be this mad if it were a skunk, jackal, or other mammal that wasn't cute-ish. The zoo made this decision to reduce inbreeding as well as teach what the insides of a giraffe looks like, I guess.

At Copenhagen Zoo (do you even know where that is?) a young giraffe was shot with a bolt pistol before having its remains autopsied for a gathered crowd. After this is was given to a group of lions at the zoo that either went “What are we supposed to do with this?” or “Finally! After all these years we can do what we were born to do!” Meanwhile the internet went crazy and 20,000 people that signed a petition went “It's 2014 and petitions mean something...right?” Not always. Sometimes its just nice to have the names of people to look out for. Or to get Justin Bieber out of America.
