Brevard Zoo is thrilled to share that our first-ever baby zebra is here! Grévy’s zebra Lauren gave birth in the early morning of June 1.

We’d like to thank our Zoo community for their kind words and condolences after the unexpected death of our giraffe matriarch Johari in January. As promised in our initial blogpost, we’d like to share the findings from the necropsy report of our giraffe Johari. 

As we celebrate International Zebra Day on January 31, we are excited to share that our dazzle, or group of Grévy’s zebra, may get a bit more dazzling in the next few months.

We are heartbroken to share that Brevard Zoo’s giraffe matriarch Johari passed away this weekend following a medical procedure.
