Our older lion cubs, Taraj and Asali, will be making their departure from our Zoo to enter a new chapter of their lives at another AZA-accredited facility. Learn more about their big move and take a walk down memory lane with us as we look back at some of our favorite moments at our link in bio!

The last day to see Asali and Taraj is October 21st. Stop by to wish them farewell!

We are so excited to announce that our female orangutan, Negara, gave birth to a healthy baby girl on October 5th. They are both doing well bonding behind-the-scenes. This little bundle of orange joy needs a name and that`s where YOU can help us. Will her name be Marigold, Ru, or Lyra? Visit the Zoo to vote for your favorite! The last day to vote will be Sunday, November 1st. Stay tuned for updates!

#Skeletober what`s in the casket!? oops, we mean casque! As you can see from this x-ray of our rhinoceros hornbill, their famous horn or `casque` is hollow. Scientists believe it acts as a resonance chamber that amplifies the sound of their honking call.

Happy World Sloth Bear Day! Fresno Chaffee Zoo is a committed partner to the AZA Sloth Bear SAFE program which seeks to protect this vulnerable species from extinction due to habitat loss and poaching by mitigating human-bear conflicts and protecting their native habitats.

Next up for #Skeletober we`re diving under with our giant gouramis. Thanks to their special organ called a `labyrinth organ`, they can breathe air from the surface. This allows them to survive in muddy waters with low oxygen.
