JHAres Posted July 27, 2003 Share Posted July 27, 2003 (edited) Yup, it's true but don't worry, the bear is not taking a medication. In fact, the vets at the zoo are treating "she" (is a female bear), because fungus in her skin, with antiseptics (used in humans too), but that antiseptic tinted her hair... just the hair... Like when you went to surgery and the scar is tinted with antiseptics, sometimes reddish and sometimes yellowish... The vets said is just a transitory color, until the treatment is finished... but they are joking about painting the elephant in green the next time, because the zoo is receiving visitors like never before to see the "purple" bear... :D Edit: More info here: http://www.cnn.com/2003/WORLD/americas/07/...r.ap/index.html but seems "she" is not 23 y.o., most news said "she" is 14 y.o.
