Guest Post by Mark Crispin Miller
Since my last post about this wrenching subject (on April 11), animals in zoos worldwide have died untimely deaths that often sound eerily like countless human deaths since 2020
Here are reports of 16 more “sudden deaths” of animals in zoos—16 such deaths reported (two of them belatedly) over the last 21 days. Although in some few cases we don’t know if the zoo had jabbed its animals for COVID, in most of them we do know that they did, as you will see.
Again, my thanks to Amber Parsons for her thorough research on this painful subject.
A panda “died suddenly” at Chiang Mai Zoo, the oldest and the biggest such establishment in Thailand:
Chinese Panda Loaned to Thailand Dies Suddenly
Panda Lin Hui fell ill on Tuesday
April 20, 2023
A giant panda on long-term loan from China died in a zoo in northern Thailand on Wednesday, six months before she was due to return home, officials from the Chiang Mai Zoo said. The cause of Lin Hui’s death was not immediately clear but she appeared to have become ill Tuesday morning, reports the AP, and her nose was seen bleeding when she laid down after a meal, said Wutthichai Muangmun, the zoo director. She was rushed into the care of a joint Thai-Chinese veterinarian team but her condition deteriorated and she died early Wednesday morning, he said.
Tewarat Vejmanat, a veterinarian who spoke at a news conference broadcast live on the zoo’s Facebook page, said the panda, who had a health check every day, was already at an advanced age at 21, though there had been no sign of illness or any difference in her behavior before she became sick. The life expectancy of a giant panda in the wild is about 15 years, but in captivity they have lived to be as old as 38. A Chinese Foreign Ministry rep said Chinese authorities would soon set up a team of experts to carry out a joint investigation into the cause of death.
How and when the cause of death would be revealed will be entirely up to China, Wutthichai Muangmun said. Under an agreement between the zoo and the Chinese government’s panda conservation project, an autopsy cannot be performed until a Chinese expert is present. Some Thai internet users speculated that air pollution in northern Thailand, which in recent weeks has spiked to levels considered dangerous to human health, contributed to Lin Hui’s death. The zoo staff, however, said that was unlikely, as Lin Hui lived in a closed space in an area of the zoo considered to have “the cleanest air.”

Here the Cincinnati Zoo belatedly reports the death, “earlier this year,” of a bongo named Beau, burying that sad news in an upbeat story of his mate Stevie’s pregnancy (following up on the also-happy news of the birth of two bat-eared foxes):
Cincinnati Zoo announces eastern bongo whose mate recently died is pregnant
April 19, 2023
CINCINNATI — Bring on the babies!
After announcing the birth of two bat-eared foxes on Monday, the Cincinnati Zoo announced Wednesday that Stevie, an eastern bongo, is pregnant and due sometime this spring.
“This is a bittersweet bundle of joy,” the zoo said on social media. “Bitter because Stevie’s mate, Beau, passed away earlier this year. Sweet because this little bundle will keep his legacy alive.”

No recollection of such “voluntary administration” in this story five months later (a story that we missed in our prior post):
Cincinnati Zoo announces death of Vernon, 50-year-old bonobo and oldest mammal at the zoo
December 5, 2021
Officials announced Tuesday that Vernon, a 50-year-old bonobo and longtime resident of the Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden, has died.
His cause of death was not shared by the zoo.

A sixth giraffe (the other five included in my prior post, for which scroll down)
Beloved giraffe dies at west Michigan animal park
April 20, 2023
Officials at a west Michigan zoo announced Thursday the death of a beloved 13-year-old giraffe.
Tucker was found unresponsive early Monday and died soon after, the Boulder Ridhe Wild Animal Park said in a statement on Facebook.
Veterinarians at the Kent County attraction conducted a necropsy later that day, according to the post.
“Giraffes are noted for having the highest blood pressure of any animal species and the findings from the autopsy indicated Tucker had died from an acute onset of heart failure,” officials said.
“This was a complete shock to all of us as he showed no signs of having any issues.”
A timber wolf named Luna died at Wildwood Zoo in Marshfield, Wisconsin (her brother, Smokey, having “died earlier this year from a rare, aggressive form of cancer”):
Wildwood Zoo’s timber wolf, Luna, dies after 8 years in Marshfield
April 19, 2023
MARSHFIELD − Known for her beautiful coloring and sweet, shy disposition, Luna the timber wolf, a favorite among visitors at Wildwood Zoo, has died, the zoo announced Wednesday.
Luna was 12 years old and considered to be a senior wolf, according to a news release from the city of Marshfield. Staff saw her behaving atypically and had a veterinarian examine her. The veterinarian found she had pyometra, an infection of the female reproductive organs, according to the release. The infection had progressed beyond the point of being treated with antibiotics and surgery was not an option.
The decision was made to euthanize Luna.
Luna had lived at Wildwood Zoo since October 2015, when she was transferred from the Wild World of Animals in Pennsylvania. Luna arrived with her two brothers, Malakai and Smokey. Smokey died earlier this year from a rare, aggressive form of cancer….
[This piece also notes the death of Blizzard, an Arctic fox, whose “sudden death” we noted in our prior post:]
Just a month ago, the zoo lost Blizzard the Arctic fox, another favorite among visitors and staff. Blizzard had been at the zoo since he was just a few months old and died at 10 years old from what was likely a rare spinal cord blockage, the zoo said.
Noor Jehan, an elephant at the Karachi Zoo, died after surgery for hematoma, its ill effects exacerbated by a fall into a pond. (The article is not the clearest, nor does it mention Noor Jehan’s age.)
Whether the elephant was “vaccinated” we don’t know.
Ailing elephant Noor Jehan dies at Karachi Zoo
April 22, 2023
KARACHI – Ailing elephant Noor Jehan, who went under the knife earlier this month, succumbed to the complications as she did not recover properly, with her condition worsening to an alarming extent in recent days as the cow took a tumble during recovery.
Administrator Karachi Dr. Saif ul Rehman told a local media outlet that Noor Jehan, named after a queen of the 17th-century Mughal emperor of the subcontinent Jehangir, was down with a high fever in recent days.
Her demise has saddened social activists who took to social media to mourn the demise of the ailing elephant.
On Friday, the ailing elephant stood on its feet despite her ill health, days after she fell into a small enclosure of a pond which aggravated her situation.
Noor Jehan was reportedly suffering from hematoma while she was filmed with swollen joints. The condition rendered the cow partially immobile. Earlier, social media users caused an uproar against deliberate ignorance and demanded provincial minister Nasir Hussain Shah visit the zoo and inquire about its well-being.

An otter and a grizzly bear “died suddenly” at the Toronto Zoo:
Toronto Zoo mourns death of 13-year-old otter Talise
April 14, 2023
The Toronto Zoo is mourning the death of one of its resident otters.
“Our hearts and our Americas Pavilion will be a little less full, moving forward,” the zoo said in a Facebook post on Friday, announcing the death of Talise, a female North American river otter. She was 13. [Otters can live up to 25 years in captivity.]
The Toronto Zoo said Talise was seriously ill when she died and that the cause of her death was an underlying cardiac issue.
“A heart problem would explain the fluid retention and heart murmur diagnosed while she was alive, and an abnormal heart noted at a preliminary post-mortem examination,” the Toronto Zoo said in a Facebook post.

Toronto Zoo announces death of grizzly bear who will be ‘missed dearly’
April 13, 2023
The Toronto Zoo is saying goodbye to one of its longtime residents.
Samson the grizzly bear died on April 10, the zoo said in a Thursday press release. Samson suffered from extreme arthritis, which after his most recent hibernation, led zoo staff to make the tough call to humanely euthanize him. He was presented with a special meal of salmon, berries, honey and watermelon just before he died in the care of his handlers. [Samson died at 24. Grizzly bears can live up to 44 years in captivity.]
“He will be missed dearly,” the Toronto Zoo said in a press release. “Our hearts go out to all those who had the privilege of working with him during his many years at our Zoo.”
The zoo honoured Samson with a special ceremony based on Anishinaabe and Tsimshian teachings, citing the importance of grizzly bears in multiple Indigenous cultures. [That’s only fitting, since Canada has also been “vaccinating” its Indigenous human beings, voluntarily or not.]

New-onset inflammatory arthritis after COVID-19 vaccination: A systematic review
New-onset post-vaccination polyarthritis are more common in females and older patients. Although COVID-19 vaccines may lead to inflammatory arthritis, the benefits of vaccination substantially outweigh the potential risks of such serious adverse effects due to their rarity.

The Toronto Zoo’s “vaccination” drive:
COVID-19 vaccine for animals
Your Toronto Zoo has received 320 doses, with two doses required per animal given about two – three weeks apart. We have 120 animals that have received or will soon receive the vaccine, based on the COVID-19 sensitivity list that has been developed through on-going research and reports of positive cases in other zoos.

Tulsa Zoo mourns loss of Jeannie the rhino
April 18, 2023
TULSA, Okla. − Staff members at the Tulsa Zoo have announced the death of Jeannie the Southern white rhinoceros.
The 43-year-old was diagnosed with cancer and began end-of-life care earlier this month. She was humanely euthanized by the veterinary care staff this week. [Rhinos have lived up to 55 years in captivity.]
“Jeannie has been such a beloved, iconic ambassador,” said Tulsa Zoo Zoological Manager for Elephants and Hoofstock Jessica Scallan. “Her gentle disposition allowed us to grow our crash (herd) with other rhinos, and various mixed species, at the Mary K. Chapman Rhino Reserve. She has always led the crash with dignity and impressive vocalizations. We will miss her dearly.”
The Tulsa Zoo’s “vaccination” drive:
Tulsa Zoo has begun administering COVID-19 vaccines to zoo mammals that are considered susceptible to coronavirus. The vaccine, which is manufactured by Zoetis, is made exclusively for animals. The zoo is prioritizing species based on their risk for developing COVID-19, including tigers, lions, snow leopards, jaguars, bears, chimpanzees and other species.

Lake Superior Zoo Announces Loss of Two Animals
April 12, 2023
This is very sad news for the crew at Lake Superior Zoo and the community. Two of their beloved animals have passed away. The zoo welcomed two twin baby pygmy slow lorises in February and sadly, they have since died.
Lake Superior Zoo officials shared the sad news on social media on Tuesday (April 11th), writing that they were broken hearted over the loss of the lorises. The lorises passed from failure to thrive, which means they were not able to gain weight or grow when they were young.
The lorises were part of a what the Lake Superior Zoo says is a Species Survival Program, meant to keep animals that are “vulnerable and endangered” in zoos until there is a self-sustaining population and they are able to be released into their wild environment.
Basically, the zoo serves as a placeholder until the lorises are thriving and able to live on their own and in the wild. Because of this, the parents of the lorises need to raise the babies on their own and without intervention from humans or zoo staff. The staff at the zoo says they are devastated by this loss and hope the parents will get a chance to be parents again in the future.

Lehigh Valley Zoo mourns death of its raccoon, Titan
April 14, 2023
NORTH WHITEHALL TWP., Pa. — The Lehigh Valley Zoo’s 12-year-old raccoon, Titan, has died.
Titan, who lived at the zoo for almost nine years, was diagnosed in October with a bladder tumor, according to a news release from the zoo. Surgery was not an option, but he was given medication, the release said.
“Veterinary and animal care staff closely monitored his condition and evaluated his welfare on a regular basis,” according to the release.
“His favorite treats became grapes and cantaloupe, and he was often seen interacting with his enrichment, especially his pool.”
“The difficult decision was recently made to euthanize Titan when it became apparent that he was showing signs of discomfort and a diminished quality of life that could no longer be managed by medications.”

An “ailing leopard” dies in Lucknow Zoo (whose “vaccination” protocol we do not know):
14-yr-old ailing leopard dies in Lucknow Zoo
April 26, 2023
Ashoka, a 14-year-old leopard at the Nawab Wajid Ali Shah Zoological Garden, passed away here on Wednesday, the zoo said. [Life expectancy of leopards is up to 23 years in captivity.]
The leopard had been ailing for some time now and had been on IV fluids and medicines for the past 13 days.
Veterinarians had been engaged in nursing him back to health at the animal clinic at the zoo itself, as were the zookeepers in charge at the clinic, but his condition had been steadily worsening lately.
A panel of veterinarians have also completed the autopsy of the leopard.

It never made sense to vaccinate animals against a virus they were never going to get.
It doesn’t make sense to you because you’ve fundamentally misunderstood the goal from the outset.
Assume the outcome was intended and work it back.
you’ll get there.
Part of an experiment, the killing off the population is icing on the cake.
I believe that most closely matches the observable facts for humans as well.
It makes perfect sense if you know that the humans that are needed to take care of the animals are all going to die from the jab too.
You have to remember Psychopaths do not have a normal conscience. They even get to the point in their delusion that it is good.
There is no virus. Why do you still believe this bullshit? Something wants all life on this planet dead.

There are too may stupid people in the world.
At least as many as God allows. I think the stupid people should be led instead of murdered and exploited, though.
Which is why I REALLY hoped the jabs would get rid of most of them.
They are even useless at doing that properly.
The intention was always to kill them, as with humans:
.
.
That’s likely why they’re injecting our livestock supply, too: to kill off our food sources.
Oh, and killing the cute pandas, etc., will help sell the idea that humans need more jabs and lockdowns, because the panda variant is out and about, or some such nonsense. They’ll push the idea that a bug and not the vax killed Bambi, and pet-loving saps will rush to jab their babies and pets. We really are insouciant boobs. Duh to the nth power.
They are making room in the Zoo’s for Humans that pass the IQ Test.

I “died suddenly”, but then I heard a voice say, “oh no no no, you ain’t gettin off that easy”… aaaaaand I was back.
You too!?!?
it’s a zoo, alright.
doubles as a shroud? shroud of zoot:
Apparently Noah’s building his ark off planet.
Highjack the starship
Hat tip, thanks.
The only reason to “vaccinate” these diverse species was as an experiment with no potential benefit to the animals. Sick bastards.
I think it’s been going on a long time. Swirling disease, prion diseases, and don’t forget the mosquitoes.
Also on humans. Remember I talked about the FIVE people I know -not counting customers- with blood clot issues some vaxxed first, some vaxxed later and one supposedly unvaxxed. Very odd.
Even more with ‘clogged arteries’ ripe for those easy, lucrative stent jobs for instance. I doubt everything.
Oh yes! Also all of the septic blood stuff, and supposed infections in hospitals. These are side effects of this vaxxxx plus much more.
The focus has been on death, etc. but there are many more listed side effects- also hearing voices, hallucinations, and suicidal thoughts.
Also immune deficiency problems. Allergies.
When did this start- with all of those regular vaxes and flu shots maybe?
If you’re having a planned fake global pandemic why not start early?
