NEW YORK — A 4-year-old tiger at the Bronx zoo has tested positive for coronavirus.

The female Malayan tiger, her sister, two Amur tigers and three African lions had developed a dry cough and all are expected to recover, according to the Wildlife Conservation Society.

All of the cats at still bright, alert and interactive with their keepers, though they experienced some decrease in appetite, zoo officials said.

They were infected by a person caring for them, according to WCS. Preventative measures are now in place for all staff caring for cats at WCS zoos.

A tiger can get a covid-19 test without even being able to express the desire for one, but let your Black ass ask for one. "Sorry sir. Tests are limited"

Didn’t know animals coughed. I never heard my parent’s dog nor my cat cough, heard me sneeze, but never cough
