Geronimo the alpaca at Shepherds Close Farm in Wooton Under Edge, England, Wednesday Aug. 25, 2021. Geronimo has twice tested positive for bovine tuberculosis and, as a result, the government Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) has ordered Geronimo to be euthanised. Macdonald, who imported the alpaca from New Zealand, believes the tests are returning false positives, but has been refused permission to have him tested a third time. (Andrew Matthews/PA via AP)

Importé de Nouvelle-Zélande, l'alpaga à la robe noire était arrivé en Angleterre il y a quatre ans.

Le sort de l'alpaga avait suscité l'émoi au Royaume-Uni, allant jusqu'à mobiliser une manifestation devant la demeure du Premier ministre Boris Johnson pour demander de l'épargner.

Veterinary staff, who arrived with a police escort, surround Geronimo the Alpaca, at Shepherds Close Farm, before the animal was taken away on a trailer to an undisclosed location, in Wooton Under Edge, Gloucestershire, England, Tuesday, Aug. 31, 2021. British government veterinarians have rounded up Geronimo, an alpaca whose sentence of death made international headlines and pitted animal activists against the state. Veterinary staff in blue overalls, masks and goggles, backed by a group of police officers, arrived at the western England farm where the animal lives on Tuesday, and took Geronimo from his pen. The scene was witnessed by animal activists and journalists who have camped out at the farm in Wickwar, 110 miles (175 kilometers) west of London, vowing to stop the killing.
