We’re egg-static! An endangered West African crowned crane chick has hatched at the Zoo. West African crowned cranes are endangered in their native African range due to habitat loss and other growing threats. This means every individual, like this little chick, are critical successes for the future of this species.

There’s a new guy in town, and he’s already turning heads. We recently welcomed Oliver, a 3-year-old male Eastern bongo who arrived from New Orleans.

Join us in welcoming Diesel, an 8-year-old male Grevy’s zebra, to our Expedition Africa loop!

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.
