We’ve gone shoe shopping for our 22-year-old Masai giraffe matriarch, Milenna! As Milenna has gotten older, she’s started to display some mobility issues and signs of pain in her legs. Some new shoes can help.

We’re excited to introduce a meer-velous new addition to Expedition Africa. We recently welcomed Jordy the meerkat to our magnificent mob.

Our Eastern bongo herd has grown yet again! Eastern bongo Clover gave birth to a male calf overnight on Aug. 5. The calf is healthy and weighs 46 pounds.

Our animal care team is helping 6-year-old Max the Ankole-Watusi through an overproduction of mucous in one of his horns, which is causing his head to slightly tilt over to one side.

We wanted to give you a quick update on two of our more senior members of our giraffe tower, Milenna and Doc.

Our three klipspringers are full of personality, but their small size can often mean they get overlooked by the average Zoo- goer. That’s why we’re featuring them this month as part of our “Meet the Animal” series.
