MEET OUR NEW MAMMAL KEEPER, KAYLA!!

Hello! My name is Kayla, I am the new mammal keeper in the Brazos River Country section of CPZ. I love native species and educating people about the animals that live near them! Bears have been a heart animal of mine throughout my professional career, so it’s no surprise that Mowgli is one of my new favs. Mowgli and I share some personality quirks, like our impatience for breakfast and our need for naps. Stop and say hi if you see us at the zoo ❤

Join us January 15th from 6:00pm-7:30pm to hear from our conservation partner, International Rhino Foundation! This event is free to attend and will be located in the Corwin, Estes, Jaynes Education Center (the large tan building to the left of the parking lot).

During the conversation, International Rhino Foundation (IRF) will update the Cameron Park Zoo on their work with conservation and preservation of rhinos in the wild, and they will share ways in which we can help with their ongoing and future endeavors. The Cameron Park Zoo has a longstanding philanthropic relationship with IRF and sharing the concrete ways that the zoo’s financial giving impacts conservation efforts is a key priority in the zoo’s commitment to transparency and authenticity We hope that events like this inspire connection between the community and the zoo’s community partners. Your memberships support conservation efforts like those lead by the IRF, so come see what they are all about!

We practice for the orangutan baby now, in all sorts of ways, to help get the group and Mei ready for the birth window that is coming up in January.
One of the unique ones we do is staying overnight! Once Mei starts her birth window, her zookeepers will live in the orangutan night house 24/7 until the baby is born.
The zookeepers did 2 nights of practice, where they worked in the night house all night, so the orangutans got used to the sounds of us being there. For a few of them, this is old news, and they are used to it from when Mei was pregnant with Razak. But, for Razak and Indra, this is a new experience, so the training is as much for them as it is for us and Mei.
