When three female reindeer arrived at the Zoo back in April, one of them had a little secret. That secret, a tiny male calf named Boris, made his appearance in September in the reindeer exhibit at Polar Bear Plunge, much to the delight of keepers. After some TLC from staff, Boris is out and about—come see our sweet surprise!

A Festival of Flight online auction runs November 5 to 15 and includes unique items like behind-the-scene tours, birding binoculars, paragliding adventures, Stellaluna and three other books signed by author Janell Cannon, an aviation adventure from the Midway, and fun, bird-inspired treasures. It's the perfect chance to find great holiday gifts! All proceeds benefit our condor and Hawaiian bird conservation projects.
This month's wish list certainly fits the bill for bird lovers! The Flights of Fancy Wish List includes plants, toys, and trees for our avian friends, as well as birdbaths and heat lamps to keep chicks warm.
