In a shocking incident, the director-general of the Zoological Park Organisation of Thailand was allegedly shot dead by a Songkhla Zoo staff on Saturday, while he was investigating the case of a missing albino barking deer.

 

 

The organisation's board chairman, Chawalit Chukhajorn, told Issara News Agency about the alleged murder of Suriya Saengpong.

 

Suriya was promoted to the director-general post in August this year.

 

The staffer who allegedly shot dead Suriya was reported to have later shot himself in his room at the zoo.

 

Thedeerwent missing in February this year. Chawalit set up an investigation committee to look into the case after Songkhla Zoo's director claimed the deer had been swallowed by a python.

Probably just another example of the appalling attitude to the worth of wild animals too many Asian people, particularly Chinese, and their willingness to exploit and kill them for financial game. Hopefully the worker concerned was involved in the disappearance of the deer and has taken his own and the directors life to avoid bring shame on his family.

The missing deer was probably illegally sold to a rich Chinese businessman. They seem to think eating rare and endangered animals will give them superpowers.

could be some truth they gave us covid
