Save the meerkat!!

Okay, so a girl gets bitten by a meerkat at the Minnesota Zoo because she stuck her face into the cage when she obviously wasn't supposed to.

The result?

The zoo had to euthanize all five meerkats in the exhibit and biopsy their brains for rabies because the girl's parents wouldn't submit her for rabies vaccination.

This pissed me off beyond anything. Because some dumb parent wasn't watching his/her kid and the dumb kid can't respect the clear boundaries of the zoo, five animals had to die.

Insane.
