world’s worst zoo: Dozens of animals starve at animal ‘attraction’ in Gaza
WATCH THIS EXCLUSIVE VIDEO OF ANIMALS STARVED TO DEATH AT "GAZA ZOO".
Dozens of animals have wasted away from thirst or hunger at Khan Younis zoo in the impoverished Gaza Strip Zoo owner Mohammed Awaida claimed staff couldn't get to the zoo because of the Palestinian and Israeli conflict Monkeys, lions, tiger, porcupines and crocodiles were all left to rot away in their enclosures at the animal park Flies buzz around the emaciated body of a lion as it decays in the sun; nearby the mummified corpse baboon lies on the ground- it's head still tilted up as though looking out of its enclosure, across from it a porcupine's brittle spines protrude from its lifeless body.
They are among the dozens of animals which have died at Khan Younis zoo in the impoverished Gaza Strip after they were left without food.
Zoo owner Mohammed Awaida has blamed the Palestinian and Israeli conflict for the tragedy- claiming it meant that staff were unable to feed or care properly for the animals at the zoo.
The abandoned animals of Gaza Zoo: Piles of rotting corpses and emaciated tigers are found in cages after it was deserted during airstrikes
Years of conflict with Israel, shelling, starvation and diseases have destroyed the six zoos across the Gaza Strip
In the South Jungle Zoo, the owner has no money to feed his animals and has to watch them become emaciated
Only three ostriches remain and the all the lions and crocodiles have died due to the poor conditions at the zoo
The dead animals are primitively stuffed and stacked in a corner as zoo is reduced to a shell of its former self
