The extreme heat index that the Philippines is experiencing these days does not only affect humans, but also pets, livestock, and zoo animals.As seen in Vonne Aquino's report on "24 Oras Weekend" Sunday, some of the pet dogs in Aglipay, Quirino have started to grow weaker and experience coughs and colds. A fur parent also lost his pet dog due to the extreme heat.
"When it comes to livestock animals, some farmers were forced to sell their cows because the rivers and streams where their cows get their food and drink water were slowly drying up. Meanwhile at a sanctuary zoo in Pililia, Rizal, the trees have become a big help to cool down their zoo animals. According to the report, ever since the heat intensified, zookeepers make sure to bathe the animals twice a day.
