Blue-crowned motmots are native to the tropical lowlands and foothills of Northeastern Mexico. The name "motmot" comes from the double-hooting call, which is mainly uttered around dawn. You can spot this beautiful bird over in the South American aviary next time you visit the Zoo!

Species Survival Plan, or SSP, are programs to ensure the sustainability of healthy, genetically diverse, and demographically varied species populations within AZA Zoos. Reid Park Zoo is an active participant in the Speke’s gazelle SSP, but is not involved in breeding. Instead our Zoo is home to a bachelor herd that allows a place for these males to live while there isn't a breeding match.

🦋Monarch butterflies take on a migration so vast that it takes multiple generations to reach their northernmost destinations and back. Simply put, a monarch that travels from Mexico in April/May will die and have her great-great grandchildren make it back to Mexico in August/September of that year.

As members of the Saving Animals From Extinction (SAFE) North American Monarch program, Reid Park Zoo works with conservation organizations like Southwest Monarch Study to collect more data about this incredible migration.

We're sharing 60 wild years of memories in 2025 — this story is from Reid Park Zoo Chief Operating Officer Ed Sakwa.

"My favorite Reid Park Zoo memory is when my wife and I took our two sons and their best friends (who are really a part of our family) when they were young. They had a blast seeing all of the animals and finding ways to be wild themselves. They are all grown now, but still love to come to the Zoo and reminisce."
