Hippo hooray! The zoo is excited to announce a heartwarming addition to our animal family just in time for the holidays: a baby pygmy hippo. The newborn arrived on December 9, 2024, after a 7-month gestation. Congratulations to pygmy hippo parents Iris and Corwin on the birth of another little girl.

It’s the shortest day of the year.

Happy winter solstice, it only gets brighter from here!

The winter solstice in the Northern Hemisphere, or northern half of the Earth, happens annually on December 21 or 22. It marks the shortest day of the year with the least amount of sunlight. This is caused by the northern half of the Earth being tilted as far away from the sun as it can be on its axis, allowing less light to reach the Northern Hemisphere.

The winter solstice has been an important occurrence for cultures around the world for thousands of years. The darkness of winter and return of sunlight has influenced yearlong calendars as well as winter customs, rituals, and storytelling, many preserved in national parks today.

Thank you to all that served their nation be man, woman or beast. 🫡

...and amongst the men lay the horses, eight million involuntary souls...
I'm so very proud of this sculpture and l'll never shy away from placing it outside of the gallery, at this time of the year, while I still have the strength to do so. I feel incredibly moved by the reaction it always gets each year from passers by in the street to people coming into the gallery to shake my hand and tell me stories of how it affects them.
It often brings people to tears when they see what it represents. Thank you to all those who feel as I do about the sacrifice not just of the men but also the animals who have no voice of their own.
Peace to everyone, Man and Beast x
