Happy #WorldLionDay! Come see our lions soak up the sun at African Plains. Did you know that African Plains was the first zoo exhibit in North America to showcase African wildlife in a naturalistic predator/prey setting? (1/2)

After you watch The Odyssey in theaters, come visit our Andean condor pair, Apollo & Athena, in the Birds of Prey exhibit! You can easily tell male and female Andean condors apart, as males are much larger than females & have a dark red fleshy crest called a caruncle. (1/2)

It’s World Owl Day! Owls play an important role in the environment. By hunting rats, mice, large insects and other rodents, they act as natural pest controllers, preventing rodent overpopulation and reducing the need for pesticide use in agriculture. (1/2)

There are some new faces in the Children’s Zoo! Meet scarlet macaws, male Beau and female Pepper! Native to the humid tropical rainforests and savannas of Central and South America, these striking birds are highly intelligent and noisy! (1/2)
