Sound on! Hippos are loud animals. Their bellows have been measured at 115 decibels, about the same volume you'd hear when 15 feet from the speakers at a rock concert!

Otterly adorable family portrait.

Happy World Lion Day! As the leader of the AZA SAFE African Lion program, the Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden plays a significant role in guiding our partners and audiences to take meaningful action to support lions. As conflict between people and lions is one of the greatest threats to the species, working with communities who live alongside this iconic carnivore is critical—and a recently awarded conservation grant will enable us to do exactly that, underscoring the Zoo’s commitment to coexistence focused approaches to conservation. Funds from the grant will allow SAFE program leaders to kick-start a 5-year plan that includes evaluating the status and impact of human-lion coexistence and regional lion populations, while also building relationships between three African community-led lion organizations and other zoos participating in the SAFE program.

Partial-webbing on the Asian small-clawed otters' paws allows for greater dexterity which these otters use to catch and handle their food! Scuttle gives a good demonstration.

Kris's Recovery Update. Back in April Kris suffered an injury during a run that left her paralyzed in her back legs. Kris has progressed in her recovery to the next step of her physical therapy. We have added more exercises as her back legs are getting stronger. She is doing walks still on leash, but we have added an incline with zig-zags and decline with stops to help building up that strength. One of the biggest improvements in her PT is how she can jump on a low platform! This is a huge step for her, and right now she can only do it once or twice, but she is getting better at it each day. We have also started trying some acupuncture therapy to see if that helps with her healing progress. Kris has taken all of her recovery so well, and purrs the entire time, we are so proud of her!
