Seven More Animals Test Positive For COVID-19 At Bronx Zoo

The world continues to deal with the Coronavirus crisis and now more animals have tested positive for the virus. 

We covered the story several weeks ago, a 4-year-old 4-year-old Malayan tiger named Nadia, at The Bronx, NY Zoo tested positive for COVID-19. Now more animals at the zoo tested positive for the novel virus. 

ABC reports four more tigers and three lions tested positive according to the zoo. None of the other zoo animals tested positive, as of right now. The zoo believes the animals contracted the disease from an employee who was asymptomatic. The animals are expected to recover.
