Not to be outdone, a different zoo in Denmark is now saying that they too have a baby giraffe that needs whackin'
(CNN) -- Could another zoo in Denmark kill a giraffe named Marius?
To some animal lovers, it sounds too terrible to be true, but zoo leaders say it's anything but a tall tale.
Just days after the Copenhagen Zoo killed a male giraffe named Marius to avoid inbreeding, another zoo said it might follow suit.
Jyllands Park Zoo said Thursday it may also have to "euthanize" one of its male giraffes -- coincidentally, also named Marius -- if a female is brought in to breed.
Zoologist Jesper Mohring-Jensen told CNN that Jyllands Park Zoo joined the same breeding program as the Copenhagen Zoo last year, which means it can't have too many giraffes with the same genetic makeup.
yup
