The North Carolina Zoo mourns the loss of its last ocelot, Inca, who passed away recently at the age of twenty-one. Incas longtime companion, Diego, had died in July. The pair, who had been together for years, had ten kittens together, contributing to ocelot conservation. However, ocelots face significant threats in the wild, leading to a rapid decline in their numbers. The zoo has no immediate plans to introduce another ocelot, marking the end of an era at the park.
