Funmi Iyanda reacts to pictures of starved lion in Kaduna zoo
Popular TV show host, Funmi Iyanda has reacted to the pictures showing a lion and other animals looking starved in a zoo in Kaduna.
The animals who look thin with visible ribs drew public concern after their pictures which were taken by a guest at the zoo went viral.
According to Funmi Iyanda who reacted to the pictures, what the animals have been through is nothing short of mindless cruelty.
She wrote on Twitter:
“Cage something so powerful and beautiful, reduce it to an unrecognisable version of itself until it dies is typical mindless cruelty.
“The mindlessness is what makes it so effective because the cruelty is unplanned, slow and casual. It just is.”
Such a strong society metaphor.
Cage something so powerful and beautiful, reduce it to an unrecognisable version of itself until it dies is typical mindless cruelty.
The mindlessness is what makes it so effective because the cruelty is unplanned, slow and casual. It just is. https://t.co/9J6vEb7MMy
