Summary

edit
Description
English: Hermes, a male sumatran tiger at Diergaarde Blijdorp, Rotterdam Zoo, the Netherlands.

Only a few months after this picture was taken, Hermes died on April 7th, 2011. Hermes was 16 years old. He had a chronic kidney disease, which was weakening him. While Hermes was eating a piece of meat, he choked. He struggled to survive, but didn't make it. Visitors saw this happen, but all they could do was warn one of the staff, who, of course, couldn't enter the enclosure either.
