Hong Kong Ocean Park’s last 2 arctic foxes die, den temporarily closed
‘Siu Go’ and ‘Trinity’ died of old age at 11, according to theme park
Hong Kong’s Ocean Park has temporarily closed its Arctic Fox Den after the enclosure’s last two remaining animals, “Siu Go” and “Trinity”, died of old age.
The theme park announced on Saturday that Siu Go and Trinity had both died at the age of 11. It did not specify when the deaths occurred.
“The park’s animal care and veterinary team closely monitored the health of each arctic fox throughout their later years and provided them with meticulous care,” a spokesman said.
“However, they ultimately succumbed to age-related and irreversible functional decline.
“Park staff and visitors who met these animal ambassadors will miss them dearly.”
The spokesman added that the Arctic Fox Den was currently closed to the public.
