You called it USZOOfan42, well done.
After you said otters I watched the video with volume. Hahahaha
Question for Toledo locals, when does the zoo change to their summer hours? I may be going in April and was wondering if they'll be open later than 2 given its a 1.5 hr drive for me

From experience they seem to go back to their regular hours by February. Don’t quote me on that but I’ve been too many times to remember and they seem to be back to normal by then.
I took a video in mid March last year and they were open the whole day so you should be good CMZman.

Does anyone know what facility the zoo's greater black-backed gulls came from or if they are only just rescues?

The River Otter pups have been named.

- Talon (1.0)
- Tallulah (0.1)
- Kaya (0.1)

The gulls have now been sent to the Bronx Zoo.
They came to Toledo from the Central Park Zoo in October 2016.

Did they all leave?
Three birds left for the Bronx, where 1 has since died. I believe these were all the specimens that Toledo held of this species.

It is sad to see Kallik and Kallu go, they were always very energetic and fun to watch. But bringing in Kali hopefully means we’ll get more Polar Bear cubs in the future.

Does this mean one of the other dingos have left the zoo? Or will they have three on display.
