A point alluded to in that article made me think. The fate of zoo animals during times of war must be awful.
Quote:
Shabby and run-down, Kabul Zoo suffered badly during Afghanistan's three decades of war but is slowly improving.
Mujahideen fighters ate the deer and rabbits and shot dead the zoo's sole elephant during the 1992-94 civil war. Incoming shells shattered the aquarium.
