Beloved Polar Bear Homer passes away at questionably safe zoo

Homer, a beloved polar bear at the zoo, passed away under strange circumstances. He was found floating in the enclosures pool an hour after his feeding. Homer isn’t the first animal to die this month. Two other animals died while in the care of the zoo.

Kenya the giraffe got her neck stuck into its enclosure and a ten year old bobcat also died of renal failure. The zoo is quoted as saying that safety is its number one priority, but is that really the truth?
