San Antonio Zoo is saddened to announce the passing of Bernadette, also known as Bernie, a 28-year-old spectacled bear. Bernie helped inspire and educate millions of visitors and was one of the first animals guests encountered upon entering the zoo. She could often be seen sleeping and relaxing in humorous fashion. Bernie had two offspring and in 2015 her grandson came to live at San Antonio Zoo from Smithsonian’s National Zoo. Earlier today zoo veterinarians and Animal Care staff made the difficult decision to humanely euthanize Bernie as her health had declined to a point where it was compromising her quality of life. Bernie came to San Antonio Zoo in 1992 from Buffalo Zoo and lived 8 years past her expected lifespan of 20 years.
“Bernie was a dearly loved member of our San Antonio Zoo family who inspired visitors and staff alike." said Tim Morrow, President & CEO of San Antonio Zoo. “During Bernie's final days our staff worked to ensure Bernie remained comfortable and the fact that she lived 8 years past her expected lifespan is a testament to the world class care she received at San Antonio Zoo. Please keep our dedicated staff and in particular our Animal Care Specialists in your thoughts and prayers as our zoo family mourns the loss of Bernie.”
