The Nurnberg zoo's decision to cull 12 healthy baboons due to lack of space has caused outrage among animal rights activists. The institution's director, Dag Encke, explained that relocating the animals was not possible and that efforts to contain them had failed. Protesters entered the garden to oppose the cull, and animal rights organizations have announced legal action, saying the situation is the result of irresponsible animal management.
