I don't get why people think it's ok to act this way? Why would you hurt any sort of animal? It makes me wonder this guys mental state and what else he has done, because if he thinks this is ok to do to a flamingo out in the public, then what does he think it's ok to do to another animal or even a human behind closed doors?

What is human nature coming to?   Zoo visitors attacking the wildlife and inflicting such horrendous injuries that she had to be put down.   I can't imagine what in the world that would cause a human being to do that.   His bond was too low.   It should be very high.   Laws are so ridiculous.   We do the laws that should not be on the books.
