Videos showing overly skinny sun bears begging for food from visitors at Indonesia’s Bandung Zoo has triggered a firestorm of protests online, with netizens demanding better treatment for the poorly kept animals. Now an online petition is attempting to shame mayor Ridwan Kamil into closing the zoo for good. Wildlife trade monitoring group Scorpion sent an investigator to capture the sickening footage of the animals, who were a fraction of their healthy 80kg weight.
