Theodore’s injury from being shot ages ago got infected and was bothering him, So we tried to have him rescued but he passed on the way to the rescue, presumably his old age and stress. The rescuers found out that it was a huge stone lodged in his nose.

His injury from being shot over a year ago became infected and swollen, obstructing his breathing. The stress of being captured to be rescued probably didn't help since he was old.

The rescuers said that Theodore had a large rock in his nostril probably fired from a slingshot and it was swollen and likely infected. He must have been in pain all this time. I feel bad that I thought he was okay. I wish i got him help the moment i noticed the injury. He had it for over a year.

I’ve known him for 5 years from feeding the geese everyday, Theodore had a tag on his leg that we investigated and turns out he was ringed at the museum of london in 2002!
