The Berlin Zoo is mourning Ingo the flamingo, its oldest resident, who died at what is believed to be at least 75 years of age and had lived there since the mid-1950s.
The zoo announced Ingo’s Feb. 3 death at an “imposing” age in social media posts on Wednesday, adding that he was “truly a legend!”
His place of origin is unclear.
