Title: Tag the Sea Lion died
Post by: Lise on Jul 02 08 05:58
Boohooo....... that's so sad. I clearly remember this big guy at the Vancouver Aquarium because he was so big and dominating. I didn't know he died of oral cancer. Funny... you'd would think that oral cancer is a result of smoking but I guess it's not limited to that.

 The Vancouver Aquarium's 15-year-old Stellar sea lion, Tag, died early yesterday after undergoing treatment for oral cancer.


 The sea lion had suffered from oral and dental problems for 10 years before being diagnosed with cancer in the winter. He went through chemotherapy and laser surgery in the spring.

So sad.  Well, I shouldn't feel so bad about my lack of flossing.  It could happen to ANYONE.
