@CincinnatiZoo It’s was a rigged system!

[Cincinnati Zoo @CincinnatiZoo]

The bird team decided to use a bracket-style system to pick a name for the new milky eagle owlet. Each member of the bird team was given slots to fill. Those became the Tweet 16. They then voted on each match-up of names until one name came out on top - Ori! #MarchMadness

Manatees are back in Manatee Springs! Three young manatees arrived in Cincinnati early this morning and can be seen by guests starting this Sunday, March 28. The orphaned males will be rehabilitated until they are ready to return to their native Florida waters.

Parts of Zoo work you normally don’t see; cranes moving trees/perching into exhibits. Big thanks to our Horticulture team and Madison Tree, now our Bald Eagles have some new furniture! #birdsareawesome @CincinnatiZoo

I’m not a fan of mammals really, but I do really dig rhinos. Absolutely fantastic animals!

Posed like reapers alongside bodies of water with their dark, wet wings half-spread to dry, Florida cormorants can give people the creeps, but these birds are absolutely stunning up close.

Got to meet these cute new babes yesterday !!!! ❤️ Mars and Rover ❤️❤️

[Cody S. @ZooCody]

I chased a coyote today. How’d your day go today? #adayinthelife

Charlie the sacred kingfisher was found on the road unable to fly, and was brought to the #AustraliaZoo Wildlife Hospital. 🐤 Our expert team soon discovered that he had a fractured wing, and provided him with specialised care. Charlie is now with a dedicated wildlife carer. 💚
