Metro have a news item on "giving africa an animal" - World Land Trust say it's "grossly irresponsible", Animal Aid say it does "not diminish poverty" due to the fact that "all farmed animals require proper nourishment, large quantities of water, shelter from weather, and vetenary care" which is something places like Africa lack (they lack them for people, let alone animals).
