Man allegedly slams flamingo at zoo, vets put the bird down
http://www.wftv.com/news/local/busch...-say/416258068
Pinky, a 19-year-old dancing Chilean flamingo at Busch Gardens in Tampa, had to be euthanized Tuesday after allegedly being attacked by a 45-year-old Orlando man, according to Tampa police. Joseph Anthony Corrao, 45, was at the park with his family in the Jambo Junction Animal Viewing area around 6:45 p.m. when he reached into the animal pen, grabbed Pinky and threw her to the ground, police said. Pinky was taken to the animal care center, but had to be euthanized because of the severity of her injuries, Busch Gardens said in a statement. "Pinky was a beloved member of the Busch Gardens Tampa Bay family and made many appearances on behalf of the park's conservation and education efforts," a spokeswoman for Busch Gardens said in a statement. "She will be sorely missed." |

It sounds like he needs to go back to prison. A person like that is a danger to society.

Wow. You can take the man out of the trailer park but you can't take the trailer park out the person. What a POS.

I grew up in Tampa and had an annual pass to BG often as a teen in the 90s and 2000s. Have been many times off and on since. Im sure Ive seen the bird.
I dont know what runs through peoples heads at times like that. Why would you want to destroy something beautiful?

The bird was going to be 20 years old next month
That bird was at Busch gardens for many years until that guy came along.
I don't have the words. Or rather, I am ashamed to say what I would like to have done with that guy. Kind of on the level of what he did to the bird, if you catch my drift. It disturbed me to read about a 45 years old man doing that in front of his family. The video of the bird dancing made the story very sad. |

Being in the bar business for 36 years ..... I am still absolutely amazed at the depravity of some people. I don't mean bad behavior, or irresponsible behavior, I mean behavior so off the charts of the human norm that it belies belief.
I always ask myself the same question, how do these people function in everyday life? What do they do, where do they live, that they can continue to function in society and not be locked up every week? |

I'd be ok if someone did the same to him!

Why do all of these types of stories (where people are clearly off their rocker) always seem to originate in Florida?
