Daily News | One of Penn’s hidden gems, its BioPond, was dyed red last weekend
incident reported 2:47 p.m. Saturday at the BioPond off Guardian Drive. The log is published by the school’s Division of Public Safety.
No motive was listed, nor was it clear whether a dye or some other substance was added to the pond. Rocks surrounding the pond still had red paint, or dye, on them Wednesday morning as ducks bobbed by. “Environmental Health & Radiation Safety also responded to examine the BioPond for the safety and well-being of both people and the vibrant animal and plant biodiversity,” vice president of public safety Kathleen Shields Anderson told the Daily Pennsylvanian.
Kathryn Butler, the greenhouse and garden manager James G. Kaskey Memorial Park where the BioPond is located, told The Inquirer she could not comment but confirmed the pond had been turned red. Butler wrote a history of the site for the Penn Museum, noting that James G. Kaskey Memorial Park is a small garden on the southwest end of campus set aside in 1894 as a botanic garden for the Department of Biology. The original, but informal name for the park, was BioPond. The area was originally five acres with a secondary lotus pond but has been cut down to 3.5 acres because of building on campus. The lotus pond is also gone.
