Beginning of corona vaccination of animals in American zoos
Colorado: A vaccine to protect animals from corona has now been launched across the United States. Some of Denver's famous zoo animals will be vaccinated.
However, experts at the Denver Zoo say they are still considering which animals should be vaccinated with the Code 19 vaccine first. Talks are also underway with Zoetis, an animal vaccine company. Dr. Scott Larson of the zoo says that although it is important to protect animals from the epidemic, bozno (primates) and carnivores will be vaccinated in the first phase.
It should be noted that the vaccine recommended for humans cannot be given to animals. But it is important to note that guerrillas, tigers, owls and other animals can be infected with the corona, but there are other animals that need to be vaccinated against cod 19. However, veterinarians insist that domestic pets such as dogs and cats are less likely to be infected with code 19.
Three days ago, it was reported from Auckland that all zoos there would be vaccinated against tigers, bears and other animals. The vaccine, approved by the US Department of Agriculture, is experimental in nature and will be administered to pigs, monkeys, chimpanzees and other animals, among others.

Amur leopard cubs at the Saint Louis Zoo
Two critically endangered Amur leopard cubs were born at the Saint Louis Zoo on April 21, 2022. The little females are the first cubs born at the Zoo since 2010 and their births are a significant contribution to the population of Amur leopards in North American zoos. This species is considered one of the most endangered cats in the world.
This is a video compilation from a den monitoring camera shows the mother and cubs in the maternity den at Big Cat Country from May 6-May 17, 2022
The cubs were named Anya (pronounced AH-na) and Irina (pronounced eye-REE-na), which mean "grace" and "peace," respectively, by the Zoo's Carnivore Care Team. This is the first litter for mother Dorothy, or Dot, age 4, and father Samson, also age 4.
Mother and cubs are doing well and will remain in their private, indoor maternity den inside Big Cat Country for the next few months to allow time for the cubs to grow large enough to safely navigate all of the obstacles in the outdoor habitat. Samson can be seen by Zoo guests in his habitat at Big Cat Country.

Triple The Love - Stone Zoo Welcomes Three North American River Otter Kits!
Births are a first for Zoo New England’s Stone Zoo
Stoneham, Mass.: March 10, 2022: @Zoo New England is thrilled to announce its newest addition of otterly-adorable residents – a trio of North American river otter kits born February 16.
Born to first-time mom, Dunkin, the kits are doing well and are bonding with their mother behind the scenes. For the first several months of their lives, North American river otter kits are completely dependent on their mother and spend time in their den under her watchful eye. Stay tuned to our website at StoneZoo.org and Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/stonezoo/) for updates on the kits as they continue to grow and reach milestones.
“We are so excited about the birth of these kits, which is a first for Zoo New England,” said Pete Costello, Assistant Curator of Stone Zoo. “As with any new birth, we are closely monitoring mom and babies. Dunkin is doing great and allowing the kits to nurse often. She’s a pro for a first time mom.” Costello added that Dunkin, age four, is displaying protective maternal instincts, saying “she likes to hide the kits when we’re around, so she covers them in hay.”
Zoo New England participates in the North American River Otter Species Survival Plan, which is a cooperative, inter-zoo program coordinated nationally through the Association of Zoos and Aquariums. SSPs help to ensure the survival of selected species in zoos and aquariums, most of which are threatened or endangered, and enhance conservation of these species in the wild. The otter kits are the result of a recommended breeding between Dunkin and Sushi, a 16-year-old otter who recently passed away due to age-related issues.
North American river otters weigh around 4 ounces at birth and will grow to between 10-30 pounds. Kits are born blind and toothless, and are totally dependent on their mother. The kits will start swimming generally between 28-56 days and start walking at 35-42 days. During this time, they will begin to play on their own, but they won’t leave the den and security of their mother for several more weeks.
Otters are excellent swimmers and divers, capable of speeds of seven miles per hour. They can stay under water for up to eight minutes. Layers of fat provide otters with insulation against frigid water and cold air temperatures, while their thick hair forms a waterproof outer layer to protect the otter's undercoat.
Otters are indicator species for the health of the bodies of water where they live. They avoid contaminated areas, so if you see otters in the wild you’re likely observing a healthy and clean ecosystem.
