"We have a responsibility to imitate the natural food chain of the animals — in terms of both animal welfare and professional integrity," Aalborg Zoo says.
The zoo said it accepts donated rabbits, guinea pigs and chickens on weekdays between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m., but no more than four at a time. It also accepts horses for feeding its animals, which it says on its website are euthanized by a zookeeper and a veterinarian.
Gotta eat. Hell, humans eat half those animals too.
My little cousin found this out at the last family gathering as he enthusiastically showed me a picture of his pet rabbits. Growing up on a farm, my first question was if they were pet or food. His face fell and he asked me if people really eat rabbits. Whoops!

Guinea pigs got domesticated for food, and are still a common dish in South America. I am pretty sure rabbits got bred for food as well in Europe
There are people raising rabbits for meat even today.
i rather not search about the topic, so i am going to trust you, i’m afraid of getting stuck in a rabbit hole
It is stocked in normal supermarkets in France and Switzerland (at least, surely others too).
