Donkey in Helmstedt: Plastic bag causes shock in the zoo!

Essehof, Deutschland - A shocking incident shakes the Essehof zoo in the Helmstedt district! On the park's Facebook page, a harmless picture caused horror. What looks like an ordinary scene at first glance turns out to be an alarming indication of the well -being of the animals. The excitement in the comments is great - and for good reason!

The picture not only shows animal droppings and a shovel, but also a plastic bag that was excreted by a donkey. "Which object does not actually belong in this picture?" the zoo asks provocatively. The answer is clear: a plastic bag has lost nothing in the stomach of a donkey! "Unfortunately, it always happens that the animals come to bags and eat them in the craze," explains the zoo team. To prevent such incidents, the feed bags in the park are consciously made of paper, since these are harmless in the event of a recording.

an urgent appeal to the visitors

How the plastic bag got into the donkey enclosure remains a mystery. Maybe the wind carried it in or a visitor wanted to do something good for the animals and disregarded the rules. The zoo urgently appeals to its guests: "By feeding false food or foreign bodies, animals die painfully!" This reminder is no coincidence, because in the past, carelessness have led to tragic losses.

The reactions of Facebook users are mixed. While some are outraged by the negligence of the visitors, another is relieved: "It could have been completely, quite differently. A real lucky residence that it is so easy to 'slip through'." The incident has heated the minds and once again illustrates how important compliance with the rules in the zoo is!
