I heard that the Columbus Zoo will have it's North American region redeveloped, I know they plan on having new exhibits for the Mexican Grey Wolves, Black Bears, North American River Otters, Bald Eagles, Canadian Lynxes, and Trumpeter Swans, but I’m kind of worried they’ll phase out some of...

Hello! Just a new member introduction from someone in Columbus, Ohio. I recently returned to the area. I was born here and grew up going to the Columbus zoo nearly every weekend with my parents and grandparents until we moved away when I was still young. I wish I could remeber those visits...

Another one which I'm sure will be familiar to any US birder.... Thank you for any help in identifying!

I'm sure these are absurdly familiar species to American birders, but I just want to make sure I have their IDs correct before putting them to bed! Many thanks, in advance.....

This is a cheetah at the Columbus Zoo in August of 2015. It was my first trip, and it was so much fun.

Props to you if you got the Wizard of Oz reference. If you couldn't tell from the title, I'm finally getting to go to one of America's best zoos this week: the Bronx Zoo! Over the week (my spring break), I'll also be visiting Ohio and West Virginia, as well as other facilities in New York City...

New year, New thread for Columbus Zoo! In support for Ohio State's recent football game the zoo has posted multiple pictures on their twitter account of their animals and keepers doing the OHIO signs and I noticed one of the tigers was in the old lion enclosure. Does anyone know who it is or...

I figured that a new thread should be started for the new year. Not really news, but here's another video of the zoo's new elephant, Hank. Shoot, the prefix didn't save for some reason. If a moderator could please fix that! :)

Again a new thread for a new year. Starting of with the hatching of a kiwi chick. Rare Kiwi Bird Hatched At Columbus Zoo | WBNS-10TV, Central Ohio News

With the opening of Polar Frontier the Columbus Zoo created a new map and it has been published on their website. On the map everything is marked with numbers with the keys on the top and bottom. The Polar Frontier entrance is right next to the Moose enclosure. While glancing over I saw a number...

Time for a 2010 news thread, starting with the birth yesterday (2/2/10) of a bonobo. This is the eleventh bonobo born at the Columbus Zoo since the Zoo received its first bonobos in 1990. Rare Bonobo Population Increases by One at Columbus Zoo and Aquarium Zoo and Aquarium Visitor News

Any news form the Columbus zoo? Anybody been out to see the progress on the Polar area? Any stories about how the animals have been dealing with our recent run of snow storms?
