Aalborg Zoo has asked for donations of live chickens, rabbits, and guinea pigs, which it says are “gently euthanised” by trained staff.
The zoo also accepts donations of live horses - with owners able to benefit from a potential tax break.
The international press misleadingly reporting on this and people getting outraged by the misleading reporting is a very interesting phenomenon to watch.
It’s the good old “But I want to be upset!” - enhanced by our modern media.
What is misleading?

I don’t see anything wrong with that article either.
Wasn’t referring to the article, was referring to the comments in the discussion. Read them and you’ll see where the misleading part lies.
Right, but I was specifically asking about the misleadingly reporting by the press that the previous comment claimed was happening.
Of course there will be bad takes in a comment section. It’s a comment section. That is a given.
I’d say it’s mostly the headline being clickbait again. It gives the impression the zoo wants people to give up their loved pets, and it makes people get enraged over puppies and kittens when they’re actually talking about rabbits and guinea pigs
