Also, Dynamic Star (Hansen x Roman Chic) died September 20 in Korea. He won 8 times from 27 starts, and evidently became a stallion this season, though he only covered three mares.

G1SW Weemissfrankie died on February 15th in Japan. I'm assuming from foaling complications, as that is the same day her Mikki Isle filly was born.

P22, famed "Hollywood" mountain lion of Griffith Park, euthanized at 12 due to injuries and illnesses. It's sad, although twelve years is much longer than most male cougars survive in the wild.
