We have some new faces swinging into the spotlight! In the next couple of weeks, we will be welcoming a breeding group of three black and white colobus monkeys as part of the Association of Zoos and Aquarium’s (AZA) Species Survival Plan (SSP).

We are thrilled to welcome a special addition to our Zoo family: an Eastern bongo baby! Mom, Denver, gave birth to a healthy male calf overnight on Dec. 5.  

Learn about some of this year’s new animals who came to our Zoo as part of the Association of Zoos and Aquariums Species Survival Plan.

Our Zoo family has grown! After much anticipation, Iggy our Grevy’s zebra gave birth to a healthy male foal on August 4. 

Our scimitar-horned oryxes are this month’s Meet the Animal stars! These animals are desert-dwellers native to North Africa. Their namesake comes from the special shape of their horns, the thin and curved keratin resembling a scimitar sword.

We’ve welcomed a new female ostrich to our Expedition Africa loop. Linda is now calling our Zoo home, and she will be joining our resident male ostrich, Little Foot.
