Mixing Things Up in our Habitats

Wander around our Zoo, and you’ll find some habitats are home to a variety of animals. These multi- or mixed-species spaces provide a unique experience for our animals and guests alike.

A Little Giraffe Update

It’s been over a year since Tisa, our newest and smallest Masai giraffe, joined our giraffe tower. This is how she’s doing.

Meet Our Newest Animal Ambassadors: Cockroaches!

If you’ve visited our Zoo in the last year, you’ve probably shared a similar experience with our other guests: Debating whether the Madagascar hissing cockroaches in our Expedition Africa area’s baobab tree are real or not. Now, the debate may be over! We’ve welcomed 10 male Madagascar hissing cockroaches to our Zoo.

How to Move a Lion – Again

Our lion brothers, Chobe, Karoo and Ruaha, have moved to their new, expansive habitat in Expedition Africa! The trio are still acclimating, but visit the Zoo on Saturday, November 16 for the official opening of our completed Expedition Africa loop as well as their habitat!
