Two surviving Sun Yat-Sen adult koi and hundreds of juveniles have been rescued from the garden pond where at least 10 of their koi companions have been scooped up and eaten by a wayward otter. Lee said staff and volunteers were pleasantly surprised by the approximately 300 juvenile koi that were also rounded up in the half hour-long operation. Volunteers from AquaTerra Environmental and Vancouver Park Board staff removed 2 adult koi and approximately 300 juvenile koi from the pond at Chinatown's Sun Yat-Sen garden, saving them from the otter who has so far eaten 10 of the prized adult fish. The koi captured today have been moved to the Vancouver Aquarium for safe keeping, joining the one adult koi that was previously relocated. Approximately 300 juvenile koi were also rounded up.
