An elephant named “Kamala” has died at a zoo just days before the presidential election – leading social media users to claim it’s a “bad omen” for Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign.
Kamala the elephant, who was living at The Smithsonian’s National Zoo and Conservation Biology Institute in Washington DC, had “irreversibly declined” in health, forcing keepers to euthanize her on Friday, the zoo said in a press release on Saturday.
