The allusions to a possible deterioration in the mental health of the pachyderm had sparked a bitter controversy between those responsible for the Barcelona Zoo and some environmental organizations.
days ago, one caregiver said, "This animal is about 37, lives alone and gets bored so sovereign. It is soft, you stare, walking erratically and eats her own feces, but it is usual in these cases. I have a cousin who happens singles exactly the same and no cause for alarm in the family. "
a result of intensified protests by animal rights groups and a greater presence in the news media, local government partners have been discussing how to improve the quality of life of the elephant, reaching an unusual solution that has been carried out with the greatest of the sigils.
"We considered the option of transferring them to Sigean, safari zoo located in the south of France, where he was to be more at ease "says Jordi Portabella, ERC spokesman," but we felt that Susie put on a long road trip would be a cruel and painful for an animal that is not past his best. "
proboscidean The introduction of the Collserola Park, on the outskirts of Barcelona, \u200b\u200bwas made in secret to avoid media attention and protests by the locals.
Mayor Jordi Hereu said at a news conference that "unfortunately, the people who first laments the captivity of a bug in the zoo then complains greatly if you are lurking within fifty meters of their dustbins. We live in a very uncooperative. "
" Our municipal officers "continued Hereu," have calculated that Susi had to be released in the northwestern slope of the mountain, where some rustic villagers accustomed to the presence of wild beasts such as stray dogs, rabbits, squirrels and wild boar. "
When asked what will happen if the elephant causes damage to the properties of individuals living in the area, Ricard Gomà, second lieutenant Mayor for Social Action and Citizenship in the city council has said that "at most, the animal may trample some orchards, but since most of the residents often lack the relevant local permits, do not expect to receive too many complaints."
Gomà finished saying that "we've expected it to be a transitional problem, since the area where you drop to Susi presents a steep slope, we estimate that in less than a week the animal be down to the town of Sant Cugat del Vallés. From there, the brown one to eat it. "
