Today is Sharks & Rays Awareness Day! 🦈 We have hammerheads and majestic eagle rays in our Pacific Seas Aquarium. Blacktip and whitetip reef sharks along with zebra sharks swim the waters of Tropical Reef Aquarium! Come meet them all.
Adorable Baby Bean lounging in the shade. ☀️ Baby Bean, a lowland anoa, has lived at the Zoo since the Asian Forest Sanctuary opened in 2004, roating with the other animals around the habitats. Like all anoas, Baby Bean is a good swimmer, and likes wallowing in mud or shallow pools. Anoas are the tiniest species of buffalo- she’s just 30 inches tall!

Dive into #SharkWeek! 🦈 Watch our hammerhead sharks feeding from behind the scenes. The hammerheads have dramatically grown since they first arrived in 2017 (nearly 2 feet long). Now, they are an impressive five to six feet long! And wow, do they love to eat! Our aquarists feed them up to 4 pounds of salmon, herring, capelin, tunny (a tuna species), sardine, and mahi mahi daily. Join us for Sharks & Rays Weekend today and tomorrow!
Big dill! 🥒 Three-year-old polar bear Astra loves splashing around with her giant pickles for enrichment. 🐻❄️
Sven, the Arctic fox, has returned to exploring his habitat in the Arctic Tundra area of the zoo, now accompanied by a new buddy. Meet one-year-old Freya! Sven and Freya have been acquainting themselves behind the scenes since late spring. According to keepers, Freya is a curious fox who enjoys exploring her new home and interacting with enrichment items.
Freya has shed most of her winter coat, but you can see a dark spot on her right hip, where she was previously shaved during a medical exam. She also has a shorter snout than Sven and is a little smaller. Sven is still shedding the last bits of his winter coat near his hind end and has a longer, darker snout.
Thank you for everyone who voted. Her name is… Pepper! 🌶️ Pepper’s strong and spicy spirit shined through after fighting a respiratory infection shortly after birth. The one-month-old sea lion pup is happily nursing, growing, and learning to swim with her mom, Eloise, behind the scenes.
