Bird Kingdom strongly disagrees with the potential euthanasia of the belugas at Marineland. We are calling for all parties involved to work together to find a solution to ensure the best possible life for these innocent animals.

🐾 Happy International Zookeeper Day! 🐾

Today we celebrate the dedicated individuals who care for wildlife every single day. From feeding and cleaning to monitoring health and teaching visitors about conservation, zookeepers are the unsung heroes of our planet’s animal kingdom.

Take a moment to thank a zookeeper for their hard work protecting and nurturing animals, big and small. 🌍💚

Today, the world is a quieter place as we say goodbye to a gentle soul. Dr. Jane Goodall, the pioneering primatologist, conservationist, and UN Messenger of Peace, has passed away at the age of 91.

Her groundbreaking work with chimpanzees forever changed how we understand animals and ourselves. She showed the world that chimpanzees have emotions, personalities, and intelligence, and she spent her life advocating for the ethical treatment of all living beings and the protection of our planet.

Jane once said, “Only if we understand, will we care. Only if we care, will we help.” She understood deeply. She cared fiercely. And she helped endlessly.

Her legacy lives on through the Jane Goodall Institute, Roots & Shoots, and the millions she inspired to take action for animals, people, and the environment.

She reminded us that hope is not passive; it’s a call to action. Even in her final years, she travelled the world, speaking to anyone who would listen, urging us to protect what we love.

Rest well, Jane. You gave us hope. You gave us purpose. You gave us a better way to live on this planet

September 30th is more than a date; it is a day to reflect. A call to remember the past to listen and to act, we wear orange in recognition of Phyllis Webstad’s story and the thousands of Indigenous children whose voices were silenced.

Reconciliation is not a single moment. It’s a lifelong commitment. It means acknowledging the harm, amplifying Indigenous voices, and supporting healing through education, advocacy, and respect.

Today, we honour the children who never returned home, the Survivors of residential schools, and the families and communities forever impacted by this painful legacy. It is the day to remember that the truth comes first. Reconciliation comes after.

Did you know that Crested Geckos rarely drink standing water when in their natural environment?

Not because they're picky, but because standing water can often house unwanted bacteria. Instead, they prefer to drink running water or dew drops off of leaves.

A great way to imitate this under human care is to mist their enclosures with clean water daily, but it's still a good idea to offer them a water dish, just in case they decide to get a midnight sip.

Did you know the lines on a macaw's face are made up of tiny feathers?
They line up just well enough to form the lines you can see here. These lines are so unique that they are almost like a fingerprint, and can be used to identify an individual in the flock!

Meet the newest aviary supervisor. "Sticks"- The Great Tailed Grackle.

Her hobbies include, but are not limited to.

Judging your work.
Questioning why you decided to limit her worm intake for the day.
Staring at you menacingly.
Creating chaos.
Being the drama.
and sunning dramatically with her mouth wide open.

We believe she is an ideal candidate for the position.
