Edinburgh Zoo have hit back at a vegan activist who made a jibe towards the enclosure's oldest penguin who sadly passed away on Thursday.
The Zoo made the sad announcement following Mrs Wolowitz' passing on Thursday after a fox broke into the penguin enclosure, saying that their, and the UK's, oldest two-legged friend had been attacked, although the rest of the penguins were unharmed.
Breaking the news on social media, keepers were also met with some backlash and nasty comments, on Twitter in particular. One user, a vegan activist, said: "She's free at last not locked up and gawped at by the paying public any more."
