It’s the perfect day to try our new Pumpkin Pie

It’s the perfect day to try our new Pumpkin Pie Iced Coffee! ☕️🎃 P.S. It’s made with bird-friendly coffee! Our partners at @fogbustercoffee are certified bird-friendly which means it comes from farms that provide forest-like habitats for birds and other wildlife. They are shade grown, which means the coffee is planted under a canopy of trees rather than land that has been cleared of all other vegetation.

This coffee isn’t just good for the environment, it’s good for you, too! Bird Friendly® coffees are certified organic as they are grown without the use of chemical pesticides.

We’re honored to announce your RWPZoo has earned reaccreditation from @zoos_aquariums. The Zoo was the first in New England to earn accreditation in 1986 and has been reaccredited continuously for 37 years.

AZA accreditation is a rigorous and comprehensive process that evaluates all aspects of a zoo or aquarium's operation, including animal welfare, veterinary care, keeper training, safety, education, conservation, finance, risk management, governance, and guest services.

"We are proud that our Zoo is helping to safeguard animals regionally and worldwide through wildlife conservation programs," said Stacey Johnson, executive director. "Additionally, AZA accreditation assures that we meet the highest standards in animal welfare and public education. This accreditation is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our staff and volunteers who believe in our mission to conserve wildlife and wild places."

Meet Velma the serval! 👋🏼 Read along for her

Meet Velma the serval! 👋🏼 Read along for her story:

Velma is an African serval, a medium-sized feline native across sub-saharan African.

Velma recently came to the Zoo after the emergency relocation of more than 75 felines from a distressed private breeding facility in California.

Servals are a part of the Zoo's 20-year plan, however, Velma arrived earlier than anticipated. With capital projects already allocated in the budget for the year, the Zoo decided to raise emergency funds to build her home.

We have been fundraising for Velma over the last several months and we are so close to our goal to get her permanent home built before the winter!

If you wish to donate and become a part of Velma’s village, please see the Velma’s Village Donations link in our bio.

Your commitment to support the unexpected needs of animals, like Velma, is instrumental in our mission of conserving wildlife and wild places. Please consider making a gift and helping to build this beautiful feline a new place to call home.

Cora is enjoying her leafy greens on this Tongue Out Tuesday! 😝

#Didyouknow giraffes have a prehensile tongue? This means they have fine muscular control allowing them to grasp and hold things with their tongue!
