that must be a decoy nest. ostrich's make decoy nest's with unfertilized eggs, they do this to keep other animals away from the real nest. its clear b/c the ostrich couple takes turns watching the nest. but at a decoy nest there is no one to be a look out.
Well, most probably, aside from it being a mongooses natural diet. There is also the fact that the ostrich is laying unfertilized eggs. If you were to allow the ostriches to have every egg fertilized, you'd (as a zoo or petting zoo) be over run with the birds! Simple logic.
i was just at the Masai Mara National Reserve in Kenya last Easter break!!!! got some incredible shots. and these 2 cheetahs jumped on our van (which was open top) and i was like 2 feet away from their faces. That place is very beautiful.
the ostriches inside are going "Weeee!"

It is cute and all; but there is a life form in that egg that is fighting for its survival... Survival of the fittest.

This is disgusting. Why on earth do you let them do this to those eggs?

Because it part of their natural diet. Simple.

This is not justified. They're not loving "naturally" in the zoos are they?

Yeah. So lets feed them chocolate and marshmellows and see how good that goes over.
Shut it. :P
They eat eggs. Pure and simple.
