We received some answers to some of our many questions about the strange illness that has killed two of the cubs at ABR. Here, on Zoom, is a video in which Dr. Knafo and Dr. Swanepoel from UTCVM answer questions and relate their findings. Dana Dodd, the Executive Director of ABR, and Curators Tori and Haley also participate in the Zoom meeting.

It is a relief to at least know what we are dealing with – a bacterial inection rather than a virus, and to be assured that the antibiotic is the right one.
We continue to keep our fingers crossed and to pray for these little cubs. Please Keep them in your thoughts and keep following their progress.
