Remembering Floyd the Masai Giraffe

We are sad to share that Floyd, our 9-year-old Masai giraffe, was humanely euthanized after receiving an extensive exam for ongoing health issues. He was known for his sweet demeanor and was beloved by his animal care team.

Welcoming A New Burmese Python

We recently welcomed an adult male Burmese python to our Zoo. He was brought to us after he was confiscated from someone who did not have the proper permitting to own this reptile. We are happy to be able to provide this individual with a comfortable and appropriate home!
