(PUEBLO, Colo.) — The Pueblo Zoo announced the passing of their beloved camel, Presley on Tuesday, Oct. 15, and extended condolences to the dedicated staff and community who loved him.
Presley joined the zoo from St. Louis at one year old. In 2022, he was treated for a broken jaw at Colorado State University (CSU) in Fort Collins, followed by a broken toe. Despite the seriousness of the injury, Pueblo Zoo’s veterinary team and CSU specialists successfully amputated the toe. After a year of recovery, he returned to his exhibit, delighting visitors.
