Hello world,
Several years ago in Germany Knut the polar bear was abandoned by his mother. Now the German branch of PETA is calling for him to be castrated. They argue that otherwise Knut would mate with his cousin, Giovanna, who shares an enclosure with him. That would decrease the genetic diversity of the bear population, and cause incest depression. Supposedly, the castration would help him be able to continue to live with Giovanna. Personally, I think that if they're that worried, they should just move him.
