Gregg Hudson, the zoo's president and CEO, called the death "very suspicious" and said the vulture had "a wound." Police have said the six counts of animal cruelty that Irvin faces are linked to taking the emperor tamarin monkeys — three counts for each. Lowman said one of the burglary charges comes from the taking of the emperor tamarin monkeys, while the other is related to the leopard.
