1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:03,120
Speaker 1: This is the Fitting in with with Cake Richie podcast.

2
00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:06,120
Speaker 1: Tell me when you make of this. A zoo in

3
00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:14,360
Speaker 1: Denmark has asked the local Denmarkians to donate pets as

4
00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:18,919
Speaker 1: food to the zoo. What so, They've put a post

5
00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:20,720
Speaker 1: on Facebook saying that if you have a pat that's

6
00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:22,079
Speaker 1: sort of nearing the end of their life, do you

7
00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:23,400
Speaker 1: reckon you could give it to the zoo so we

8
00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:24,720
Speaker 1: can feed it to our animals.

9
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:27,920
Speaker 2: Give me a break. So, like, what any type of

10
00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:29,160
Speaker 2: animal like your dog?

11
00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:32,919
Speaker 1: Well reading this is quite interesting because it starts off

12
00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:35,199
Speaker 1: by saying, if you've got any chickens, any rabbits, or

13
00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:37,040
Speaker 1: maybe you've got a guinea pig that you're not really

14
00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:40,199
Speaker 1: into anymore, Look we'll come and pick it up. And

15
00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:42,600
Speaker 1: then see that lion over there in the corner of

16
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:45,440
Speaker 1: the enclosure. It's gonna love a bit of guinea for

17
00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:48,600
Speaker 1: dinners for dinner.

18
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:52,159
Speaker 2: No, that is not how you know if you've got

19
00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:56,160
Speaker 2: a greyhound that's obviously not performing on the track, Well, here.

20
00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:00,320
Speaker 1: We go, there's a tiger enclosure. I suppose you just

21
00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:02,640
Speaker 1: throw the greyhound in and let it goet. What's weird

22
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:05,120
Speaker 1: about this because they've said if you have any animal

23
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:09,720
Speaker 1: that is to leave life for various reasons. Feel free

24
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:13,480
Speaker 1: to donate this to us. So what they've said is

25
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:17,840
Speaker 1: the animals are gently euthanized, euthanized by the training staff

26
00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:21,440
Speaker 1: and then afterwards uses food. So they've said it's really

27
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:25,319
Speaker 1: healthy for the animals at the zoo to experience real

28
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:29,000
Speaker 1: meat like you would in the natural food chain of life.

29
00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:31,360
Speaker 2: Give me a break. Do you get a little plark

30
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:33,480
Speaker 2: or something? You know? And people we spoke about this

31
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:36,680
Speaker 2: recently where the councils had to stop people putting plarques

32
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:40,119
Speaker 2: on local benches because that's where people love to sit.

33
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:41,399
Speaker 1: That's right, Jo.

34
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:43,840
Speaker 2: I mean, if you donate your pet, can you just

35
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:46,520
Speaker 2: have you know, in the line enclosure, is there a

36
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:48,040
Speaker 2: little plark there that says.

37
00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 1: Speaking to greyhound? Yeah? Yeah.

38
00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 2: Fifteenth of May we drop Rover off and he was

39
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:55,200
Speaker 2: gobbled up within two minutes.

40
00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 1: He run around for a while, he tried to keep up,

41
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 1: but a pack of lines on unfortunately ripped him to shreds.

42
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 1: So not only as you said fits when you said

43
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:07,640
Speaker 1: what animals do, they accept chickens, rabbits and guinea pigs.

44
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:09,639
Speaker 1: That's what they list at the start of it. Then

45
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 1: the post goes on to say. The zoo's website explained

46
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:20,799
Speaker 1: that it also gratefully accepts live horses walk. If you've

47
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:23,440
Speaker 1: got a pony in the backyard and you're thinking, oh

48
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:27,160
Speaker 1: my god, this donkey really is costing me too much

49
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:29,959
Speaker 1: in carrots per week, here, donkey, I'm just going to

50
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:33,359
Speaker 1: ride you for one last time down to Taronga. Everything's

51
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:35,359
Speaker 1: going to be all right. I'll be getting an uber

52
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:37,959
Speaker 1: home and you just stay here with our friendly lions.

53
00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:42,520
Speaker 2: Oh. I don't know if you have to do the

54
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:47,000
Speaker 2: sound effects, mate, I mean you would think if you were,

55
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:49,079
Speaker 2: I mean, if this did apply here in Australia.

56
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:51,720
Speaker 1: It's a crazy idea and the backlash has been huge.

57
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:56,280
Speaker 1: Got our neighbors have got a dog. I'm sort of

58
00:02:56,320 --> 00:03:00,799
Speaker 1: thinking if it went missing, who would really be too

59
00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:04,240
Speaker 1: concerned If you've got an annoying dog as a neighbor, Jess,

60
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:07,000
Speaker 1: don't roll your eyes at me. You would we do.

61
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 1: But I would never take it and feed it to

62
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:09,359
Speaker 1: a lion.

63
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:13,239
Speaker 2: Well it's not your dog. You just can't take somebody else's.

64
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 1: I just would know.

65
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:17,440
Speaker 2: See they're not They're going about this the wrong way

66
00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:19,919
Speaker 2: by asking the public to give up a beloved pet

67
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,720
Speaker 2: what they should do is go to Ramwick on a Saturday,

68
00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:26,120
Speaker 2: go to the owner's enclosure and just pick the guy

69
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:29,440
Speaker 2: that's sitting there with his hands in his head, on

70
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:31,799
Speaker 2: his head, just going oh my god, this horse. I'm

71
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:36,160
Speaker 2: over it, on over it. That's where you find your

72
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:39,080
Speaker 2: next feed for the line enclosure, or you bring the.

73
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 1: Line to the track and it can actually make the

74
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:45,320
Speaker 1: horses run faster than I've ever run before. Now that's

75
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:48,520
Speaker 1: a good race, Now that'd be interesting. It's in Whippa
