"Starving Syrian rebels besieged in Damascus suburbs signalled their desperation yesterday by killing and eating a zoo’s lion.

Zoo predators tend to suffer from trichinosis acquired by eating sewer rats. Happened in some German cities in 1945, people died when eating killed bear and such.

Many videos circulate showing Syrians catching, killing and boiling cats. Looks like cats are quite fat with all these rats now that pest control is not on the priority list.
