Happy National Zoo Lovers Day! ❤️ Many of us grew up visiting these animals and are now sharing that same magic with the next generation. What made you fall in love with the Zoo? We’d love to hear your stories!

This #NationalWildlifeWeek, we are showing nature's true colors! 🎨

From the red wolf’s earthy tones to the spotted salamander’s bright yellow polka dots, wildlife comes in every shade imaginable. But, these colors aren't just for show, they are vital tools for survival!

Whether it’s a monarch’s bright orange warning or a burying beetle’s bold markings, nature uses color to communicate and survive. But, these vibrant colors can only shine if we continue to help protect the places they call home. Small actions, like supporting local wildlife conservation, keep the wild looking bright!

We are thrilled about the warm welcome that our newest resident Carsie the Capybara has received thus far! We have received a lot of questions, and we want to help you get to know him a little better.

While capybaras are social animals, Carsie was unfortunately bullied and injured by his previous group. Because he’s now fearful of other capybaras, he’s currently living solo for his own safety. We are keeping an extra close eye on his well-being and are already exploring unique companionship options for him. Stay tuned for updates.

Carsie is adjusting very well to his habitat and building trust and bonds with his keepers. We are very excited he has joined our Zoo family, and can't wait for you all to meet him in the Faces of the Rainforest! 💙

Swinging in to wish you all a very Happy Easter! 🐣

Happy World Civet Day to some of the most unique creatures on the planet! Did you know Binturongs are the largest species of civets?

Civets are smaller omnivorous, nocturnal mammals that belong to the Viverridae family. Today we are shining a light on the fascinating, often overlooked civet, a crucial guardian of forest health and biodiversity.
