Carnivores, who make up 98% of the world population,
suddenly realized they eat animals. It was not until February 2014 when the
Copenhagen Zoo killed a giraffe and fed it to the lions that carnivores made
the connection between killing animals and their steak dinner. “Come to think
of it, I never made the connection” said Jeff O’Brian from Tuscaloosa. “I want
to thank CNN for bringing this to my attention. I’m done eating animals, from
now on I’m only eating chicken” he said.
In barbecue picnics around the world demonstrators protested
the killing of Marius the giraffe. “Pass me the bacon,” said Theresa Kluless,
as she held a placard denouncing the Danish government in Nashville.
In China, students were discussing the horrible tragedy as
they were sipping shark fin soup in ivory bowls in Beijing. In Japan, mothers
in a park were aghast. “It is unacceptable to kill a cute giraffe and feed it
to the lions,” said one in Tokyo as she offered her child a dolphin sushi.
Meanwhile, the Beef Association of America published a full
page ad in papers across the country denouncing the killing of Marius.
“Giraffes are cute animals. They deserve protection from humans.” Similar
condemnation came from the Chicken Growers Association: “In America we treat
animals humanly. We would never dream of showing them on TV before we kill
them. It is very stressful to the animals.”
Of the 6.86 billion meat eaters around the world, 3 promised
to become vegetarians in solidarity with Marius. For veggie people, this is
very encouraging news. At this rate, it would take only 2.078999 billion years
and 3.44521 billion slaughtered giraffes for the entire world to become vegetarian.
For others, this whole vegetarian thing is moving way too fast. Cattle growers
are afraid that some other zoo in Denmark will by mistake kill a cow on TV and
lead 3 more people to lead a vegetarian lifestyle. Diplomatic efforts are under
way to remove all cows from Denmark and hide them in an undisclosed location.
Our sources tell us that it will be either Guantanamo or the new Trump Golf
Course in Doral. “Both places have plenty of grass,” said our contact in
condition of anonymity.
In a top secret operation, code named “vaca loca,” NAVY
SEALS will airlift Denmark’s 475,000 cows in 6 Apache helicopters and drop them
at the undisclosed location. “We are a little worried about the Holstein. We
know that the Red Dane and the Jersey are pretty docile though.” The whole
operation is expected to last 18 minutes. “Based on our experience with Bin
Laden, it should be smooth. We don’t expect any enemy fire from the Danes. To
tell you the truth, I don’t even know if they have an army” said a Pentagon
official. To make sure that all goes well, the operation will take place while
the Danish televise the killing of the next giraffe. “Everybody will be glued
to their TV sets at that time,” predicted our source.
As rumors spread about “vaca loca,” the Fur Trade
Association is already upset that the navy is using the politically incorrect
name SEALS as operatives. “With all this animal love fest going on, the name seals
will invoke seal slaughter, and before you know it, we will have a bunch of
seal lovers protesting all over the place about fur coats.”
Given the pernicious global repercussions of Danish
barbarism, the UN is considering sanctions against Denmark. The Security
Council is considering a number of actions to bring Denmark in line with the
ethical standards of the international community:
1.
Banning herring for 12 months.
2.
Disallowing the use of bicycles to go to work.
3.
Removing the philosophical essays of Soren
Kierkegaard from libraries around the world.
4.
Replacing Tuborg with Miller Lite at restaurants
around the Copenhagen zoo.
5.
Stripping Hans Christian Andersen of his Danish
citizenship.
6.
Turning soccer fields into rehabilitation
grounds for wounded giraffes.
7.
Military invasion.
Efforts are also under way to block incendiary websites such
as the animal kill counter. The website claims that in the time it takes you to
read this piece approximately 350,000 marine animals, 185,000 chickens, 10,000
ducks, 5,600 pigs, 4,000 rabbits, 3,500 turkeys, 2,800 geese, 1,750 geese,
2,800 sheep, 2,000 goats, 1,650 cows and calves, 105 dogs, 27 horses, 20
donkeys and mules and 14 camels would be slaughtered by the meat, egg, and
dairy industry. May Marius and all these animals rest in peace.
