Sorry man, that is a bummer.

Regretfully this is the only humaine option. Would you rather it slowly starve to death?

oMFg!!! Take the damn thing to the zoo NOW! u can't tell me they've never taken care of those babies before. People can be so sTupid!

Damn shame is right. If you poison the thing the meat will be worthless.

I am sure the people who have made this decision havet hought of all angles. Yup: it's a shame.

this stuff just pisses me off. how sad = (

calves can live off regular baby formula. they mean to say that they couldn't devise ANYTHING to feed it formula? please. if they had DONE something instead of having meetings with their thumbs up their collective ass, it could have been saved.

I can see putting the poor creature out of its misery if there is no other alternative, but by what I read they never tried to do anything but watch it deteriorate. The part about it nuzzling boats as if they were its mother really got to me. By that behavior, it stands to reason they could have rigged something up for it to feed from. It's not like he was shy and running away from any kind of contact. It's sad they couldn't have tried a little harder.
