Mass. zoo's cats benefit from Boston power loss

It seems the power failure in Boston the other day yielded some
unexpected benefits for the meat lovers at the zoo !!

MENDON, Mass. (AP) -- The transformer fire that knocked out power to thousands of homes and businesses in Boston turned about to be a stroke of delicious luck for the big cats at a Massachusetts zoo.

The Capital Grille donated 2,500 pounds of steak worth $20,000 to the Southwick's Zoo in Mendon after the restaurant lost power on Tuesday and the prime cuts of meat were no longer fit for human consumption even though they were kept in a refrigerated truck.

The zoo's two Bengal tigers, an African lion and a leopard dined like kings on Thursday. And there are enough leftovers to feed the cats for weeks to come.

They're not as dumb as we think !


I think the authorities need to consider
how the animals somehow pooled their thoughts and
conspired the master plan !

What a waste. Surely they could have used the meat to make pink slime?!!

J/k. Lucky carnivores!

Once in a lifetime gourmet meal -

behind bars

So did the refrigerated truck lose power also?
I don't understand. It a refrigerated truck... It keeps the meat cold enough for human consumption...
