    Nah, my snaps look dreadful. I think I need a new phone!

    On a side note, this is a great time to visit the exhibits, since everyone's still getting used to their new digs. The bears especially are having a great time. Riskin the Sun Bear spent quite a while lying in his little waterfall to cool off today. :)

    Esther, a female lesser kudu was born June 28.

    Monsoon, a female lowland nyala was born June 10.

    Elsa, a female addax was born May 15 and was joined by male, Heath, on June 3.

    I just uploaded 305 brand-new photos of Saint Louis Zoo, including all the gems that one of America's best zoos has on offer.

    No, each have their own, brand-new exhibits in River's Edge along with Painted Dog. They do share a holding building between Painted Dog, Andean and Sun Bear.
