A group of hungry locals broke into a zoo and butchered a
horse for meat.Food shortages in the struggling country are being blamed as
one of the main reasons for the horrid incident which took place at Caracas’
Caricuao Zoo – last month.
In the early hours, when the zoo was closed, the group broke
into the state-run attraction. They took the black stallion, the only one of
its kind at the zoo, from its pen and then chopped the animal up in a secluded
spot.
