- Kasita, a bonobo baby born in March 2024 at Wilhelma Stuttgart, died last week at six months old.
- The infant was found lifeless in its mother’s arms, causing trauma among the group members.
- An autopsy showed malnutrition, although the mother is healthy and exhibited no signs of reduced milk supply.
- A milk sample was taken for further analysis to determine if milk composition contributed to Kasita’s condition.
