Language-learning app Duolingo has sadly confirmed that its owl mascot has died. In a social media post, the company confirmed the expiration of Duo, the little green owl. "It is with heavy hearts that we inform you that Duo, formally known as the Duolingo Owl, is dead," Duolingo posted on X.
Naturally, the gaming industry has taken this time to mourn Duo and possibly incriminate itself with images that'll hold up quite nicely in court once the murder case gets underway. So who is responsible for the death of Duo, a noted fan of singer-songwriter Dua Lipa? One of the suspects could be the Reaper from Vampire Survivors:
Or Keit'Ehr, the Subjugator skulking around the flagship of Oryx in Destiny 2, could also be a suspect:
Police might want to also bring in Renaissance man Ezio Auditore da Firenze in for question, as people have a tendency to suffer fatal stab wounds when they get close to him:
Or maybe Duo shouldn't have dropped into a quick game of Rainbow Six Siege:
Maybe Duo's death was an accident. Such tragedies certainly do happen surprisingly often around well-tailored bald men with barcode tattoos on their neck:
Some conspiracy theorists have suggested that Duo has done an Elvis and isn't dead at all, or at the very least, might have been resurrected thanks to some gnarly viruses:
Meanwhile, some people think that Duo should have abstained from vigorous Just Dance sessions.
Is this what Master Chief meant by finishing the fight?
Like the case of Jimmy Hoffa, we'll probably never know what really happened to Duo or why there's a strange lump on the football field of New Jersey's Giants Stadium. We've got a few more prime suspects listed below, just to cover every angle of the crime of the century:
If you do decide to visit the Duolingo social media channels, the reality of Duo's death will be hammered home with a new app icon of a very dead-looking owl. The company says it will reveal more details this week on Duo's untimely death and the shocking truth behind it.
