Fox News
Brights Zoo in Limestone, Tennessee, has announced that Lief, a 7-year-old male sitatunga antelope, died after choking on part of a baby food pouch that was left behind by a zoo visitor.
"Some ask why we don’t allow squeezable pouches into the zoo. The reason is simple - the packaging is dangerous to our animals," zoo officials shared in a Facebook post on June 8, announcing the animal's death.
To animals, the colorful lid could look like food, the post said.
