The message mirrored a similar request made earlier this year on the zoo’s website, which similarly asked for donations of horses as long as they were healthy, under 4 feet 10 inches tall, and had not had medical attention within the previous 30 days.
According to the statement, owners of horses are eligible for a tax deduction for the animal’s worth.
According to the post, zoos have an obligation to mimic the natural food chain for carnivores, which require complete prey in order to have a hunting experience that is comparable to that found in the wild.
