Your Zoo visit helps support our Asian elephant herd and their counterparts in the wild. We provide funds for elephant conservationist, Dr. Farina Othman and her team in Borneo, to put tracking collars on wild elephants. The collars are used to follow wild elephants, collecting valuable movement data that is used to inform future protection for the elephant families as they travel through the forests.
Watch a replay of this week’s Facebook Live to see our own herd up close, including Kirby, who turns one next Sat, Nov. 15. She now weighs about 1,300 pounds, which is four times the size she was at birth.
