Seven African penguins at Tampa's Florida Aquarium have died due to an unknown cause.
"It is with heavy hearts that The Florida Aquarium announces the passing of seven of our African penguins. At this time the cause of death is unknown and under examination. While initial necropsy (animal autopsy) results were inconclusive, the Aquarium’s veterinary team is conducting further medical tests and evaluations to determine a possible cause," the facility wrote. "The Aquarium’s remaining penguins are receiving around-the-clock observation and care, and we remain cautiously optimistic." The aquarium noted that while its team would work rigorously to discover the cause of the deaths – it may never be possible.More Related News
