Don't throw rocks at animals
I was visiting Bob and Tuya today.

Both are still separated. But I was happy to see them, even from far away. And I hope for good (minul) news maybe next year.
At the end I was having a very loud argument with a dad/family there. These people were super loud and throwing rocks at the animals because they "weren't doing anything". (Besides calling them "fat" and "useless".)

Bob was visible afraid after this and hiding in the far corner of his cage.

I would have stopped them anyway. Regardless the animal.
It's just rude and I don't understand how people can be like that to any animal.

What awful sounding people. Thank you for standing up for the manuls! People who do that should be banned from zoos altogether.
I’m glad you said something to them, that’s so sad
Julia Hughes, I never experienced this before. I mean, yes, people will be loud but throwing rocks so their kids will be entertained for moving animals?
No worries, I would have said something regardless the animal.
abrikosismygoat, It really was 😢
Thank you for speaking out for manuls.
What brutal people😡
Does any zoo staff know this?
People can be so mean and awful! Poor manuls, I hope they're okay! ☹️❤️🩹
poor babies. people like that shouldn't be able to go to zoos. I hope they are safe and can run around freely soon without worrying about that stuff...
This would drive me crazy. Zoo staff should definitely be made aware and intervene. Super unacceptable.
Such awful words. I can’t help thinking, “And you, calling them useless… what about you?” It’s okay. Most people who love animals also love manuls. But still, sorry on behalf of humans.
