The Minnesota Zoo humanely euthanized Haines, a 18-year-old rescued brown bear, due to worsening joint disease.
The Minnesota Zoo has announced the humane euthanasia of Haines, a male brown bear who lived 18 years at the facility after being rescued as an orphaned cub in Alaska in 2008.
He was diagnosed with degenerative joint disease in 2023 and received ongoing medical care, but his health declined despite treatments.
The zoo described him as a calm, clever bear with a sweet tooth, beloved by staff and visitors alike.
His passing follows the recent death of a 40-year-old orangutan at Como Zoo, marking a difficult time for Minnesota’s zoos.
The Minnesota Zoo, open since 1978, spans 485 acres and hosts about 500 species, welcoming around 1.3 million visitors annually.
