so old McDonald doesn't have an alpacaOriginally posted by SueEllen View Posthttps://www.theguardian.com/world/20...save-him-fails
A four-year battle to save the life of Geronimo the alpaca has failed.
The news was confirmed by the Department of Environment, Food and Rural Affairs.
Geronimo twice tested positive for bovine tuberculosis, but the animal’s owner, Helen Macdonald, a veterinary nurse, said the regime was flawed and the eight-year-old alpaca was perfectly healthy.
Macdonald fought the decision in the courts and pleaded with the UK government to allow him to be retested, with more than 130,000 people signing a petition calling for the camelid to be spared and a “human shield” of animal lovers stationing themselves around Geronimo’s pen in south Gloucestershire.
