Today, we’re celebrating International Day of Women and Girls in Science by sharing the experiences and insights from some of the amazing women in science at our Zoo. Let’s meet Anna Foster, Keeper 1 in the Americas section of our animal department. 

We’re swinging in to introduce you to our two newest members of our Rainforest Revealed loop, father and son Goeldi monkey duo, 22-year-old Jack and 9-year-old Poe! We’re thrilled to welcome this new species for our Zoo. 

We recently said goodbye to Biggie the capybara, a lifelong resident of Brevard Zoo.

We’re saddened to share that our 24-year-old squirrel monkey, Bruiser, was humanely euthanized due to a decline in his condition and a poor prognosis for his quality of life.

We are heartbroken to share that one of our beloved Linne’s two-toed sloths, 7-year-old Lorenzo, was humanely euthanized due to a critical decline in condition.    

Happy birthday, Masaya! Today, we’re talking about what it takes to care for Masaya during her older years.
