We are incredibly proud to announce that we have a new staff veterinarian working with us: Dr. Garrett Crooks! With our L3 Harris Animal Care Center being behind-the-scenes, we wanted to introduce you to this new Zoo team member and get his insights on what it is like to care for our Zoo residents so far.   

Take a behind-the-scenes look into how we prepped and performed a veterinary exam for Gollum the American crocodile.

Lunchable may sound like a snack, but this green sea turtle is serving up a story of resilience.  

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.

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 Rosemary Lucas, our certified veterinary technician.
