Bokdongi, an elephant who has been called the site of Dalseong Park Zoo in Daegu for 48 years, died at the age of 50
The Daegu City Urban Management Headquarters said on the 6th that Bok-dong, a male Asian elephant who was raised at Dalseong Park Zoo, died at around 6 p.m. on the 4th, and Bok-dong, born in 1974 in India, became a member of Dalseong Park when a company donated to Daegu City on September 10, 1975
Bok-dong’s health has deteriorated since June because of his old age, and he has been suffering from toenail inflammation When raised in a cage, the average life expectancy of elephants is about 40 years, but Bokdong is said to have a high risk of various diseases after living for 50 years An official from Dalseong Park said, “Bokdong can be seen as 80 to 90 years old as a person.”
The Daegu Metropolitan Government incinerated the dead body of Bokdong No separate sample work was done to preserve the bones With Bok-dong’s death, only a female Asian elephant born in 1969 who was 5 years older than Bok-dong remains, and the Dalseong Park Management Center finds that Ko-soon is also 55 years old or has no health problems As of the 6th, 645 animals of 75 species, including mammals and birds, are being raised in Dalseong Park
