Duh, it's a zoo, duh. They can get those aniermals from the zoo. Duh.
thats not how it works though. i mean whats the difference between feeding a cow and a giraffe to a lion apart that its not in a lions diet to eat a cow? does it make it more ok for one to be killed just because you eat it everyday? i think lions are giraffe's natural predators, so in the wild they would end up in the same faith anyway
idk about this biology stuff but i dont think its safe to change a lions diet with chicken, cows and pigs.
the plan was that the zoo needs space for better animals, instead of releasing the giraffe in the wild and having the risk of it dying on its first day due to loss of instincts AND wasting money to transport a single giraffe over to africa, they feed other animals with it + its part of their natural diet. sounds good to me. why people are crying is beyond me
