The COVID vaccine has now found its way into zoo animals.
Zoetis, a pharmaceutical company that produces vaccines and medicines for animals, will donate 11,000 doses of a COVID vaccine for animals to 70 zoos across the country.
The Oakland Zoo announced late last week they have assembled their veterinary and animal care teams to begin vaccinations of their highest at risk animals.
The Denver Zoo also looks to vaccinate 100 lucky animals before the end of summer, with big cats and apes to receive the shot first.
