It is with profound sadness we announce that 41-year-old Nola, one of only 4 remaining northern white rhinos, has died. Nola, who lived here since 1989, was under veterinary care for a bacterial infection, as well as age-related health issues. In the last 24 hours, Nola’s condition worsened and the animal care team made the difficult decision to euthanize her. We’re absolutely devastated by this loss, but resolved to fight even harder to ‪#EndExtinction. We ask you to join us in that fight. Please share your memories of Nola and your condolences with the ‪#Nola4Ever‬ hashtag, and let this be a warning of what is happening to wildlife everywhere. ‪#RIP sweet girl. You will be deeply, dearly missed.
