The Year in Pictures 2014

What stories do you remember? What stories made you think? What images stuck with you?
          The story about Marius the giraffe stuck to me the most in 2014. it was a zoo killing that happened in the Danish Zoo. the giraffe apparently did not fit in with the park's breeding program therefore had to be killed and feed to lions. This story made me think because your are thinking is the zoo did the right thing or not. Should they have saved that animal who was costing them money to feed or have they done the right thing by feeding it to the lion  not wasting any parts of the giraffe's body? The image of the giraffe's story stuck to me because its not something pleasant that you would see everyday.
