The Dickerson Park Zoo announced the death of a 19-year-old lioness Shetani Tuesday due to chronic kidney disease and cognitive dysfunction.
These health issues impacted her personality and overall well-being, so she was humanely euthanized.
Shetani was born in November 2006, at the Pueblo Zoo in Colorado and arrived at Dickerson Park Zoo in March 2008.
