In shocking news, Hyderabad zoo has reported Coronavirus in eight lions. This is the first of its kind case in India, wherein as many as eight Asiatic lions at the Nehru Zoological Park (NZP) in Hyderabad have tested positive for the deadly virus. On April 29, TOI reported that Centre for Cellular & Molecular Biology (CCMB) informed NZP officials that RT-PCR tests have come positive for these lions.
Dr. Siddhanand Kukrety, who is the curator and director of NZP, has neither confirmed nor denied the news. Instead he said, “It’s true that the lions showed Covid symptoms but I’m yet to receive the RT-PCR reports from the CCMB and hence it will not be proper to comment. The lions are doing well”.
