A heartbreaking loss hit Evansville as Luna, the young Sumatran tiger at Mesker Park Zoo, passed away unexpectedly after a bone became lodged in her throat. Zoo staff did everything they could, but the situation escalated too quickly for surgery. What’s really striking is that the bone was a standard part of her diet—something tigers usually handle without trouble. This has sparked conversations about animal care and the risks even familiar routines can carry. The zoo team is grieving, and many locals are sharing memories of Luna. How do you feel about the challenges zoos face in caring for such rare animals? #Pets #Evansville #MeskerParkZoo
