Un număr de 28 de elefanţi au fost testaţi pentru depistarea COVID-19 într-o rezervaţie forestieră din sudul Indiei, au anunţat miercuri autorităţile, după ce moartea unei leoaice a fost pusă pe seama coronavirusului, informează AFP. Leoaica, un exemplar în vârstă de nouă ani care face parte dintr-o specie ameninţată, a murit la începutul lunii iunie în parcul zoologic Arignar Anna din Chennai, în statul vestic Tamil Nadu, potrivit presei locale. Analizele probelor prelevate marţi de la 28 de elefanţi, dintre care două exemplare femele, urmează să fie realizate de Institutul indian pentru cercetare veterinară din statul Uttar Pradesh (nord). ''Animalele nu prezentau niciun simptom, a fost doar o măsură de precauţie'', a precizat reprezentantul parcului. ''Prelevările în sine nu au ridicat nicio dificultate'', a adăugat acesta, aşa cum reiese din imaginile video înregistrate de personalul rezervaţiei în timpul recoltării.
