When men were fighting over the last baguettes of bread in the shops, there was nothing to eat for the animals of the zoo, especially the carnivores who paid a heavy price during this crisis.
—Kané Samouka, Directeur, Zoo National d’Abidjan on the effect of the post-election crisis on the animals.
On ne demande pas à un homme qui a faim si son chien a mangé.
(We do not ask a man who is hungry if his dog has eaten.)
—Proverb
