KUNMING Zoo safely removed two cats from the monkey mountain enclosure Saturday evening in response to public outrage sparked by a video depicting monkeys dragging and pulling stray cats. The zoo commissioned the College of Veterinary Medicine of Yunnan Agricultural University to conduct a comprehensive examination, confirming that the cats were in good health without external injuries. The cats have been transported to Beijing by China Small Animal Protection Association, which will oversee their proper placement. Kunming Zoo expressed its commitment to reflecting on its shortcomings and promptly considering public opinions and suggestions. The aim is to provide animals with a natural, safe, and healthy living environment. Kunming Zoo introduced cats to the monkey enclosure as a measure to control rodent issues, resulting in accusations of “monkeys abusing cats.” (Shine.cn) |
