Pasha, the 13-year-old white Bengal tiger at the Night Safari, was euthanised on July 1, after a battle with lymphoma, a progressive cancer. He had been in declining health and was no longer responding to treatment or able to enjoy a good quality of life, said Mandai Wildlife Group, which runs the Night Safari, in a statement on July 2.

“Following a comprehensive veterinary assessment, our teams made the difficult decision to humanely euthanise him to prevent further suffering,” said Mandai Wildlife Group veterinarian Trent Van Zanten.
