A trio of snow leopards at a Nebraska zoo died of COVID-19 one month after contracting the virus, zoo officials said Friday.
The Lincoln Children's Zoo stated that Ranney, Everest, and Malaku all succumbed to COVID-19-related complications. The three snow leopards had first tested positive for COVID on October 13, along with a pair of Sumatran tigers who have since made a full recovery.
Veterinarians attempted to treat the snow leopards with an aggressive regimen of steroids and antibiotics that ultimately proved unsuccessful...
...The virus has already been identified in cats, dogs, lions, otters, tigers, and gorillas, among others. The CDC has stated that symptoms of COVID in animals could include many of the same ones seen in humans: fever, coughing, difficulty breathing, and a general lethargy.
The death of the three Lincoln snow leopards marks the heartbreaking loss of a big cat that is already facing dwindling numbers. The World Wildlife Fund (WWF) has snow leopards listed as a vulnerable species, and estimates that there are only between 4,000 to 6,500 left in the wild....

I thought people were kidding about the cats being vaxxed!
“The cats are all immunized against the coronavirus, but it’s believed they may have been exposed prior to the second dose.”
Has “logic” just disappeared?
Healthy cats get one COVID jab, they get sick.
Sick cats get second COVID jab, some DIE.
1 + 1 = 2.
Just how dense can people be?
We are talking people here.
You know, the race of beings that occupy both sides of the Bell Curve.

“Doesn’t the fact that this Chicom bioweapon is infectious across so many species seem more than a bit odd?”
Not so much, since the chinks are like ants—thy feed on ANYTHING!
An act of war, whether it was accidential or intentional.
I thought I read results of genome sequencing two-three months ago — it was C19 — maybe Atlanta Zoo. Sorry, terribly hazy on the details.
An act of war, whether it was accidential or intentional.
Motive and timing point strongly to the latter.
At best, the Chinese capitalized on an accident to intentionally not contain it.
works that way with people too - healthy people get one shot, let their guard down, and get infected. The first shot slows down the infection but it’s just a delay. They get a second shot just before going symptomatic, and they die. Because it takes two weeks after the second jab to have optimum protection (6 week total) and two weeks after symptomatic is about the end of the 30-days to death average seen in humans, and, apparently, cats.
*When the last time was that a new strain of virus ‘jumped’ from one species and spontaneously developed, through random mutation, the ability to infect humans, cats, dogs, and a variety of other animals?*
a link to the Smithsonian gives one example of human to animal: “Herpes Simplex-1 causes blisters on the lips known as cold sores in humans, but it can kill gibbons, marmosets, and tamarins
