On this World Wildlife Conservation Day, we are celebrating our commitment to preserving the incredible species of animals that share our planet! 🦒

At the Hattiesburg Zoo, we support multiple local and global wildlife conservation efforts, working to protect endangered animals and their habitats around the world. When you visit or donate to the Hattiesburg Zoo, you are contributing to these vital conservation initiatives. Together, we can make a lasting impact on wildlife around the world! 🌎

One of the conservation programs we support is the Jaguar Species Survival Plan (Jaguar SSP) created by the AZA. Jaguars are an endangered species, and this program is dedicated to education, mission, and conservation of Jaguars- like our beautiful Maya! 🐈‍⬛

Monday morning after a holiday (can’t get out of bed).

Our baby Hyena, Kuuma, is doing great! You may notice his fur is looking a little different. Hyena cubs are born with a dark, scruffy coat. As they age, their fur will start to lighten up in patches before becoming the spotted coat that adult hyenas are known for. Even in the animal kingdom, kids have to go through an awkward phase! We can’t wait to see the colors that he will grow into!

“Paint me like one of your French Lemurs” 👨🏼‍🎨

You can often catch our Lemurs in some hilarious poses while they sunbathe! Lemurs like to sunbathe to regulate their body temperature. It can get quite chilly in the mornings, and sunbathing helps them warm up and become more active for the day. Sunbathing is also a way for them to conserve energy and stay healthy. Think of it as their morning cup of coffee!

We have a name! Thank you to all of the wonderful suggestions from our supporters. Hattiesburg Zoo staff has decided to name our adorable Hyena baby boy…. Kuuma!
Kuuma, (pronounced coo-ma) means “bite” in Swahili. We think he has the cutest little teeth! 🥹

Our beautiful Abeni celebrated her 12th birthday over the weekend! 🥳
Did you know that servals have the longest legs of any cat relative to their body size? This helps them jump up to 10 feet in the air to catch prey! 🐱✨
