After previous months “Nala”, the African lioness that lives in the “La Reina” zoo, presented an ingrown toenail on her left claw, members of National Wildlife Mexico arrived at the Tizimileño recreational center to perform surgery on the feline.
The veterinary doctor Elizabeth Sánchez, in charge of this park, reported that for several months “Nala” had had an ingrown of one of her claws and caused her to walk with difficulty.
For this reason, he requested the collaboration of veterinary doctors from the National Wildlife Mexico group to solve this problem.
“It is a great responsibility entrusted to us for the well-being of the animals in captivity at the “La Reina” zoo and we are working on it.
“Thanks to National Wildlife Mexico for teaming up and helping us with our lioness, and also thanks to our mayor Adrián Quiroz Osorio for trusting us to change the management of the specimens, favoring the conservation and preservation of species in the zoo”, indicated the specialist.
For their part, the director and deputy director of Municipal Public Services of the City Council, Carlos Balderas Rosado and Manuel Alcocer Perera, respectively, indicated that that same morning veterinary doctors from the Xcaret park visited the zoo with the intention of verifying Lol-Há’s stay, the female tapir brought in last June.
During their tour of the park, they recognized the improvement work in the animal cages and congratulated these initiatives that have been carried out in a short time in favor of animal welfare.
