Come on people, lets get together and stop the private sale and abuse of fireworks.
“Wellington Zoo is calling for an end to private fireworks after a spooked animal died on Guy Fawkes night.
The male Nyala - a type of antelope native to southern Africa - was found dead at the Zoo on Wednesday morning.
General manager of animal care and science Daniel Warsaw said they believe the Nyala got spooked from fireworks and ran into a fence.
“”What we've found on the post-mortem was that his death was caused by high levels of stress."

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
