16-year-old female Giant anteater Jade and her mobile enrichment is quite possibly the best thing you’ll see all day!

At 34-years of age, Eno is the oldest red-bellied lemur in North America, and he’s seen here sharing a special treat with his best pal, 21-year-old crowned lemur Deseret. Sound on to hear them enjoying their snack!

And yet another reason why your visit to the Zoo is different each time! Lucky guests got to watch grizzly bear Kachina gnaw on her bone in the water before deciding to balance it on her head!

The bison in Golden Gate Park always have a tree-mendous time with Christmas tree enrichment! They love to throw the trees in the air with their horns and rub and scratch on fallen tree trunks 🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲

Grizzly bear Kiona opted for a soak in a tub of cool water in the shade rather than a dip in the big pool in the sun today. She looked quite content! 🌞#hotday

Following the abduction of our beloved senior ring-tailed lemur, Maki, we received an outpouring of concern, which led to his return late Thursday evening! Somewhat anxious and hungry, Maki appears to be in good health!

What a relief to have Maki safe at home! We wanted to share this vid of Maki just after his rescue last night. We’re so grateful for the swift work by @SFPD to arrest his abductor, which they announced today.

It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Garcia, 15-year-old male Mexican gray wolf. As Mexican gray wolves go, Garcia was uncharacteristically bold, curious and playful, which made him a fan favorite by both visitors and animal staff alike.

SF Zoo mourns the passing of Oscar Jonesy, the third oldest Western lowland gorilla in a US Zoo. Western lowland gorillas are listed as critically endangered by the IUCN, making Oscar an important icon of conversation at the Zoo. We invite visitors to honor his life by leaving
