Nuremberg Zoo in Germany faces severe criticism after euthanizing a dozen healthy baboons due to overcrowding. Zoo officials cited limited space as the primary reason for the decision. Animal rights organizations have condemned the action, describing it as unnecessary and inhumane. Legal action against the zoo's management is now being pursued by several animal welfare groups, who argue that alternative solutions should have been explored before resorting to killing the animals. The incident has sparked a national debate on zoo management practices and animal welfare standards.
