Ranger was euthanized because of health issues, zoo officials said. He was taken in as an orphaned cub in 1997.
A 25-year-old American black bear taken in as an orphaned cub by the Los Angeles Zoo has died, zoo officials said Thursday.
Ranger was euthanized Wednesday because of health issues that had hurt his quality of life, the zoo said in a statement. “This is truly a deep loss for our zoo community,” Denise Verret, chief executive and zoo director, said in the release. “Since his arrival at our zoo, Ranger’s presence helped connect millions of Angelenos to the type of wildlife that exists around us, which is crucial to building empathy, so we may peacefully co-exist with one another.”The #BettyWhiteChallenge did the trick: Viral campaign raises $70,000 for L.A.
Donations to honor TV star and animal-welfare advocate Betty White exceeded $70,000, the L.A. Zoo’s nonprofit partner, GLAZA, announced Tuesday. Born in 1997, Ranger was first brought to the L.A. Zoo as a wild rescue out of Minnesota, zoo officials said. The bear was orphaned as a cub and taken in by a family who surrendered him to the Minnesota Wildlife Rehabilitation Center.
