“French Angelfish receives high-end medical treatment at Denver Zoo”
In a heartwarming story that’s sure to warm even the coldest of fishy hearts, a French angelfish was recently given the VIP treatment at the Denver Zoo after experiencing some floating issues. The finned VIP was whisked away to receive a CT scan, which is normally reserved for Hollywood stars and the occasional gorilla.
According to sources, the French angelfish, who is known to be quite the socialite among the other fish in its tank, had been struggling with floatation issues for several weeks. Concerned animal caretakers at the zoo decided to take action, and the fish was immediately flown from its luxurious tropical habitat to the medical center.
Fortunately, the CT scan revealed no serious medical issues, but just to be safe, the fish was placed on a special buoyancy aid, designed to keep it afloat and bring back its glamorous swimming style. The efforts paid off, as the fish is now back to its socializing and mingling, swimming with poise and grace as if it had never experienced any issues in the first place.
The news of the CT scan and subsequent buoyancy aid has sparked outrage amongst some animal rights groups who accuse the Denver Zoo of favoritism. “Why do some fish get preferential treatment while millions of other aquatic animals go without proper medical care?” lamented one animal rights activist. “It’s an outrage.”
When asked about the accusations, the Denver Zoo defended their actions, stating, “Our primary concern is always the health and safety of our animals. We treat all animals, whether big or small, with the utmost care and attention.”
But the question lingers on, was the CT scan and buoyancy aid simply a case of the zoo pampering its VIP residents, taking away from the needs of other aquatic animals? We may never know. But one thing is for certain, this French angelfish will be the talk of the tank for a long time to come, swimming proudly with its newfound buoyancy.
