A 4-year-old female Malayan tiger at a zoo in New York City has tested positive for coronavirus, according to results from the National Veterinary Services Laboratories at the U.S. Department of Agriculture . Officials say this is the first report of a tiger becoming infected with COVID-19, the disease caused by coronavirus.
Health officials say the large cats got sick from being exposed to a zoo employee who had COVID-19, but was asymptomatic. The Bronx Zoo has been closed since mid-March; the first tiger began showing signs of sickness on March 27, according to the USDA. No other animals in the zoo are experiencing coronavirus symptoms, officials said.
The USDA said"this is the first case of its kind" and"further studies are needed to understand if and how different animals could be affected by COVID-19."
