Tonight is the first of two teen open houses at the Zoo! If you’re a teen interested in a career in conservation, field biology, zoology or animal sciences, you don’t want to miss this!
The new Mayor of the Zoo is Tahu the River Otter—she won by a whisker, with just 15 votes separating Tahu and Alli the Box Turtle! Tahu thanked the voters and has promised to lead the Zoo through uncharted waters. #zoonews#mayorofthezoo
