DENVER, May 22 — The death of a monkey at the Denver Zoo from bubonic plague has prompted officials to change the habitats of some zoo animals and renew efforts to keep visitors from feeding the urban wildlife here.
A hooded capuchin monkey at the Denver Zoo. An 8-year-old capuchin monkey at the zoo died of bubonic plague last week.
The animal, an 8-year-old female hooded capuchin monkey named Spanky, was the first zoo animal to be infected with the plague since an outbreak was detected last month in squirrels and a rabbit in City Park, just outside the zoo.
