Oh hi, Hudson! Look for this foxy fellow along Yukon Creek. He's the one with the wide, forward-facing ears that give him super hearing. Did you know Arctic fox can detect tiny sounds of prey moving under the snow!

Meowza β€” it's International Cat Day! 🐾

There are four species of big cat at Stone Zoo β€” cougars, snow leopards, jaguar and Canada lynx. Whether we're providing forever homes for orphaned cougars or participating in Species Survival Plans, Zoo New England is working to help big cats around the globe. Your membership and ticket purchase support these initiatives.

So visit the cougar sisters, Maple and Willow, snow leopards, Kira and Himal, Seymour jaguar and Yoshi lynx this weekend (the weather looks *stunning*) and know you're part of big cat conservation too!

We appreciate you, Owlfredo.πŸ¦‰

Our delightfully grumpy screech owl is a charming ambassador for her species. She was raised at Stone Zoo after a tree company unknowingly disturbed her nest. We're honored to provide Owlfredo a forever home with nutritious food and top-notch medical care where she can help our guests appreciate owls and their important place in our ecosystems!

Warm and fuzzies incoming ❀️

Staffer Allison caught these sweet, snuggly moments of the new baby colobus monkey. As you can see, Teka still keeps the baby close. But it remains active and curious and completely adorable.

Baby pictures! Have you seen the baby colobus monkey yet?

07/25/2025

We've got some big little newsβ€”new baby colobus monkey has joined the group at Stone Zoo!

The baby, with its juvenile white coloration, was born at Stone Zoo overnight on July 21 to 17-year-old Teka (mother) and 19-year-old Isoke (father). The infant joins a tight-knit family group that also includes big sisters Kenya (age 10) and Fuhara (age 9) and older brother George (age 1). Both mom and baby are doing well! The animal care team has been seeing all good signs of healthy development, including nursing, holding tight to mom and vocalizing.

Guests can see the colobus family in their indoor and outdoor habitats this weekend!

🫟 KEEPER WEEK SPOTLIGHTS 🫟

Our keepers care deeply about the animals in their care. In fact, many wear their passion "on their sleeve," so to speak. For National Zoo Keeper Week, Keepers Nora and Courtney are sharing some of their more meaningful tattoos!
