The San Diego Zoo has already given doses of an experimental vaccine to its apes. Now, almost three dozen zoos have put in orders for the vaccine, including the Oregon Zoo.
The vaccine should be available in a few months.
Many zoo animals, including gorillas, tigers, and lions have all had confirmed coronavirus cases.
