Berlin - A German ostrich owner is suing
three youths for allegedly making his bird impotent and
depressed by setting off firecrackers next to it, a spokesperson
for a court in eastern Germany said on Thursday.
The court in the town of Bautzen in Saxony will hear the
case on January 15.
The owner of the male ostrich wants €5 040 in
damages from the youths, one aged 17 and the others aged 18,
because he was planning to start an ostrich farm.
"The man claims that he lost out on the possible births of
14 chicks and he also wants compensation for the vet's bills,"
the spokesperson added.
