PLEASE may I express dismay at your newspaper's decision to do a one-sided article about a "hoax package" supposedly sent to the zoo.
Animal rights have been automatically blamed without any group or individual being asked to comment.
I can't possibly imagine why animal rights campaigners would want to send such a package.
All those I know are far too busy befriending poor wretches at the bottom of the pile, as well as striving to get some legislation in place to deal with all the horrific cruelty in our midst.
As for the bond which Blackpool zookeepers claim they have with the elephants, I can't help asking, 'Where do the electric goads fit in?"
Wasn't it claimed that the Chipperfield elephants had bonded with their keepers? Then we saw the video.
