Saying Goodbye to Tullah: The Dallas Zoo’s Beloved Giant Anteater

Dallas Zoo, USAThu Nov 21 2024
Well, folks, we've got some sad news from the Dallas Zoo. They had to say goodbye to their 14-year-old giant anteater named Tullah. She'd been there since 2013, and everyone loved her. Tullah was known for her playful spirit, like when she'd splash around in the sprinklers or chill in her pool with her tail flapping like a fan. She loved the sun and a good bath too. In recent times, the zoo noticed Tullah's health wasn’t the best. Her appetite changed, and the teams kept a close eye on her. They gave her the best care possible, but sadly, the tough decision was made to euthanize her. It's clear from the zoo's statement that Tullah was deeply loved and will be greatly missed. It's always heartbreaking when we lose an animal like Tullah, but it's important to remember the joy she brought while she was here. Let's appreciate all the moments we have with our beloved animal friends.
