In a bizarre affront to gay rights, a Polish politician has criticized a local zoo for acquiring a gay elephant named Ninio. Doesn’t every living thing have the right to fulfill its own destiny?
According to
news sources, Michal Grzes, a conservative (I’ll say) from the right-wing opposition Law and Justice party in the city of Poznan in western Poland was quite critical about baby Ninio who will probably not procreate.
He told Reuters:
“We didn't pay 37 million zlotys ($11 million) for the largest elephant house in Europe to have a gay elephant live there. We were supposed to have a herd, but as Ninio prefers male friends over females how will he produce offspring?”
Ninio is hardly the only male elephant living in the zoo. The head of the Poznan zoo claims that the 10-year-old may still be too young to decide whether he prefers males or females as elephants only reach sexual maturity at 14.
Well, whichever way Ninio goes, he goes.
Perhaps it is councilman Grzes who has to go.
What do you think?
