The emerald tree boa is an arboreal snake species that resides in trees and branches in the rainforests of South America. They have large heat sensors with which they can sense infrared radiation and detect prey.
Happy Learn About Butterflies Day! Fresno Chaffee Zoo is a proud partner of AZA`s SAFE program for the North American Monarch. Monarchs are a vital pollinator species for our ecosystem but are facing threats of habitat loss, pesticides, and climate change. The AZA SAFE Network is working to increase pesticide-free native milkweed and install wildlife-friendly landscaping in cities and towns to increase populations of monarchs and helpmake their migration journeys safer. You can help support pollinators like the monarch by planting native flowers in your garden. Visit the link in bio to find native plant guides to turn your space into a pollinator haven.
