It’s with heavy hearts that we share our 5-year-old black-handed spider monkey, J, was euthanized this weekend after sustaining extensive injuries during an altercation among our spider monkey troop.  

We’re chatting all about the three galahs who call our Zoo home: Willow, Luke and Elora!

Today, Brevard Zoo was named the No. 5 zoo in the United States by USA Today’s 10Best Readers’ Choice Awards. In addition, the Zoo’s membership program was named the No. 4 membership program. 

We’re reflecting on the love and joy Masaya the jaguar brought to us during her time at our Zoo.

Sir Hooks a Lot arrived at our East Coast Zoological Foundation’s (ECZF) Sea Turtle Rehabilitation Center at Brevard Zoo within the first few days of 2026. This small juvenile green sea turtle was found struggling at the Jetty Park pier in Port Canaveral, a popular fishing spot.

We hope you’ll join us in saying “see you later” to our 23-year-old male Southern white rhinoceros, Frankie, who will be moving in the coming months to Potawatomi Zoo in Indiana.
