Losing two beloved Malayan tapirs at Denver Zoo has left staff and animal lovers heartbroken—and it turns out a simple supplement mistake was to blame. The zoo’s investigation found that an accidental copper overdose, meant to address low levels, led to the deaths of JonHi and Rinny. Now, the zoo is overhauling its supplement protocols to prevent anything like this from happening again. It’s a tough lesson, but one that’s prompting real change. How do you feel about the challenges of caring for endangered animals in captivity? #Pets #DenverZoo #MalayanTapir
