Werribee Open Range Zoo are without Cheetah, following the death of their female Kulinda:
From socials:
It is with heavy hearts that we say goodbye to Werribee Open Range Zoo’s beloved 13-year-old geriatric cheetah, Kulinda.
After years of world-class care to keep her comfortable and happy in her golden years, our vets and keepers made the incredibly sad but humane decision to euthanise her this morning.
Kulinda was experiencing various age-related health issues that vets and keepers were actively treating. However, her condition declined in recent days, led by her age-related loss of vision, arthritis and occasional weakness in her hind limbs, which greatly impacted her quality of life.
