     Hi,
last weekend our family visited Copenhagen Zoo. However, we were very surprised by your aggressive goats. In the "goats garden" one of the goats (a black-greyish one) attacked and stole my son's newly bought ice-cream. If you have goats around kids I think it is your responsibility to discipline the goats. 
Please confirm that you have received my invoice for the lost/stolen ice-cream (20 DKK).
Best regards,
Tim Fredriksson

Oh, that goat must have been hungry – and with a sweet tooth to it...  

This is of course rather regrettable and we apologize !

I have just checked and actually there is a sign at the enclosure saying that feeding of the goats is not allowed. This is not only out of respect for the animal’s health, it is actually also to ensure that the goats do not approach the kids in an unwanted way.
Naturally I am aware of the fact that your son did not feed the goat – but it also means that it is a bit unwise to bring in a child carrying an icecream.
We hope you understand why we are not able to consider your mail as an invoice for DKK 20.


Kindly

  1. Look at that goat in the eye - you can tell he's an ice cream stealing goat.
