An article about the future 425-acre North Campus facility: PICS: Safari-like experience coming to Saint Louis Zoo's new 425-acre North Campus
I'm exited to see what Saint Louis has in store for its future safari park. Let's hope it will be as good as The Wilds!
A black-and-white colobus monkey was born at the zoo. New colobus monkey makes debut at St. Louis Zoo
6 Black Tailed Prairie Dogs were born last week and the Sharks and stingrays that will be at Stingrays at Caribbean Cove have also arrived.
There was a video on Facebook so I don't really know. If you want you could go to Facebook and watch the video.
Cownose Ray and Southern Stingray. They are listed on the website, at this link: Stingrays at Caribbean Cove presented by SSM Health | Saint Louis Zoo It is the *first* item to come up when you do a Google Search for "saint louis zoo stingray". Perhaps doing that search would have saved you some time answering your question?
The Saint Louis Zoo has reopened today June 13. The link explaining reservations and all guidelines is here (Reservations and Your Zoo Visit | Saint Louis Zoo) but I will highlight some relevant points: - As is now usual, visits are now by reservation only; as the Saint Louis Zoo is a free zoo, the reservations are also free. - There is no time limit once inside the zoo; you may stay the whole day if you like. - Wearing masks is required at all times except when eating/drinking, during which guests must remain 6 feet apart from other parties. - The Herpetarium, Bird House, and Primate House will be open, albeit 2 hours later than the rest of the zoo opens. The following exhibits will remain closed: - The Children's Zoo - The Insectarium - Penguin & Puffin Coast (except Humboldt penguins outside) - Indoor ape and ungulate viewing (outdoor habitats are open) - The Sea Lion underwater tunnel (rest of exhibit is open)
Asian Elephant Calf Due Soon: The Saint Louis Zoo Has a Pregnant Elephant and We are Hyped The calf, due this summer, will be Rani’s third calf; and the fifth for Raja, the sire.
Sixteen critically endangered lemur leaf frogs (Agalychnis lemur) have metamorphosed in the Herpetarium: #BringTheStlZooToYou – June 19 Does anyone know how commonly this species is kept/bred in the States? I have seen them in at least a couple zoos; IIRC Europe has an EEP for them, but I don't think they are formally managed in North America.
I don't think they are to common but the zoos that have them seem to be constantly producing massive numbers of tadpoles. I suspect there are lots of zoos that keep them bts without us knowing.
There’s about 15 zoos with them, but most zoos that have them (especially bigger zoos with dedicated amphibian programs like Saint Louis and Detroit) keep large numbers so there’s a few hundred around.
Rani has given birth! A male was born at 1:55 p.m. today. This is Raja and Rani's first male calf. It's a Boy! Asian elephant calf born July 6, 2020 | Saint Louis Zoo
Rani’s calf remains in a critical condition, but has shown signs of improvement over the weekend: Saint Louis Zoo says elephant calf is showing signs of improvement, remains in intensive care Our elephant calf has shown signs of getting stronger over the last couple of days, however, he remains under intensive care. Recent efforts have focused on maintaining his hydration, electrolyte and nutritional status, although his feeding instincts remain underdeveloped.
