Notes and Information

This pup was captured alongside two others at three months old (most likely during or near October), and were sent directly from the capture site en route to Izu-Mito.

This individual's cause of death is listed as pulmonary congestion; to the best of my understanding the calf's death was sudden, and a cause was not able to be determined.
