Geronimo the Alpaca loses his battle

[Catherine]

I wondered about the test. Geronimo arrived with a negative test from New Zealand.  New Zealand has high standards so I would trust their testing. Geronimo has lived in one place. Where would he even have been exposed to Bovine TB. 

I understand the urgency to fight Bovine TB, but the methods are outdated. This is what happens when a government minister has a strong bias. 
They only see their own point of view and it influences how things are done. The best choices are not being made. 

You end up with a gentle Alpaca being the victim of this bias.
This did not have to happen and it should not have happened.
It certainly shouldn't have happened the way it did.

I feel sad for a gentle creature that died in fear and distress when he shouldn't have died at all.
