A baby hippo named Farasi was recently born in a zoo in Switzerland, but they don’t have room for him, so they’re considering feeding him to the lions!:

Obviously, there’s a huge protest against this, and Farasi is cute now, but before you get too outraged, keep in mind that the hippo kills more people in its native Africa than any other animal. (That’s a Trivial Pursuit Genus 1 answer, right there. For the pie piece.)
