San Antonio Zoo closes three exhibits after wild vulture tests 'non-negative' for bird flu
As a measles outbreak raises concerns in Texas, another epidemic is forcing the San Antonio Zoo to close three exhibits until further notice. In a Sunday Facebook post, zoo officials said they're closing the facility's Hixon Bird House, Lory Landing and Flamingo Mingle exhibits for the foreseeable future after a deceased wild black vulture found on the grounds over the weekend tested “non-negative” for H5N1 bird flu. “Fish feeders will be temporarily emptied, as fish food may attract wild birds,” the San Antonio Zoo also wrote its statement.
