MARCH 3, 2022 — An exceptional new birth has just taken place at the ZooParc de Beauval on February 28: a giraffe! He is a male, son of Baya and little brother of Kimia born on July 22, 2019. His father is Momo, the only adult male in the group.

The newborn is doing well. The veterinarians carried out his first auscultation about 24 hours after his birth, thus leaving time to create the mother-child bond. He already weighs 79 kg and is about 2 m tall. Full of life, the little one easily stands up to go and suckle his mother many times.

Orangutan Infant Update

There’s a new face at ZooTampa! This little Bornean orangutan was born to mom Hadiah and dad Goyang on February 6, bringing the size of Tampa's family group to 10 individuals. Mother and child are both doing well and have begun making appearances in the public-facing habitat.

Habitat loss, much of which is connected to the unsustainable palm oil industry, heavily impacts all three species of orangutan. You can help these amazing apes by downloading the Sustainable Palm Oil Shopping Guide app, which will help you make smarter choices at the grocery store.


Strong Name For A Strong Giraffe Girl

The giraffe calf at Zoo Vienna continues to develop well thanks to the intensive care of the animal care team. It explores its surroundings with interest and dashes through the giraffe park. The little one's main food is still Holstein cow's milk, but she also nibbles on hay and leaves that were frozen for the giraffes to feed in the winter. “Our giraffe girl has shown real willpower and perseverance over the past few weeks. The animal care team has thought a lot about what the little one could be called. In the end, the decision was made to use the name "Amari" - which means "the strong one" in the African language Yoruba," reports Eveline Dungl, the head of the zoological department responsible.
