Man helps turn dead farm animals into food for lions

A man has spent the last 20 years killing and collecting dead animals to make food for lions.

Andrew Goatman is a knackerman and despite having a job that few have heard of, he plays an important part in the agricultural industry. Andrew's job sees him sometimes have to deliver the final blow to animals who are moments away from death, although a lot of time he is called in when they have passed away already, DevonLive reports.

He then takes them away on his truck before they head off in one of three directions - a crematorium, mass incinerator or the zoo where they are made into food for the animals there including lions. A lot of people like the zoo option, according to Andrew.
