Zoo still insists male macaw didn’t die
We seen dis routine.[DAWN] KARACHI: The zoo administration has found a ‘replacement’ to dismiss the news that recently appeared in a section of the press that the facility reporting three puma cub deaths in a short period had also lost a male macaw over a month ago, sources told Dawn on Tuesday. However, the zoo couldn’t find the right species as a ‘replacement’, proving its own claim that the male macaw is still alive false. During a recent visit to the zoo, two keepers were found hand-feeding a young blue-and-gold macaw (Ara ararauna) in a cage housing two green-winged macaw (Ara chloropterus) chicks along with their mother. As the keepers fed the young macaw, the mother perched on a log made loud calls, as if she was screaming, and changed its position quite a few times in the cage. Posted by: Fred 2016-07-14 |
