Elephants spend a major portion of their lives on their feet. 🐘 That’s a lot of weight for their feet to support! Our keepers provide routine foot care, using special tools, to keep our elephants’ feet healthy. Healthy feet play a key role in supporting their overall well-being. Watch the video to see our elephant team in action.

Our keepers give our elephants baths as part of their routine care. 🐘💦 Not only do baths keep our herd clean, but they also give our elephants the opportunity to use their muscles and exercise. Watch this video to learn more!

If you've visited our Rainforest building recently, you might have spotted a new addition - Tiger Ratsnakes! 🐍

Native to Guyana, Central America, and parts of Mexico, these impressive snakes can grow up to 9–10 feet long. Their diet includes small prey like rodents, lizards and eggs, and their arboreal lifestyle has earned them the nickname 'el volador,' meaning 'the flyer,' for their ability to glide effortlessly through tree canopies.

Escape the chilly weather and experience the warmth of the tropics right here in Tulsa—stop by our Rainforest and say hello to our new residents!

Exciting news! Tulsa Zoo is preparing to welcome giant anteaters with the planned Clayton and Gina Hughes Family Giant Anteater Habitat. This new exhibit is scheduled to break ground in 2025, in time for a fall ribbon cutting.

This innovative exhibit will take over the space currently housing our lone male Dexter cow, Kingsford, adjacent to the Rainforest main entrance. Kingsford will enjoy his retirement behind the scenes.

This project is made possible through a generous gift from the Clayton and Gina Hughes Family. Stay tuned as we bring this nosey newcomer to Tulsa Zoo!

In this video, you’ll see Zoe, one of our giraffes, participating in a blood draw session with our veterinary and hoofstock teams. Routine blood draws help us monitor Zoe’s health and provide the best care possible. Through reinforcement and trust-based training, Zoe has become comfortable with the procedure so that Tulsa Zoo staff can better monitor her health as part of a routine preventative health care program.

Our veterinary and keeper staff work so hard to ensure our tiger cubs are healthy. They create opportunities for Ava to shift away for short periods of time, which she would do in the wild when she defecates to ensure the smell doesn’t attract predators. During these times, the cubs are weighed, visually inspected and given supplemental feedings. Check out this video showing the process.

Kalu is on his way to his new home at the Detroit Zoo to join the pride with Asha and Amirah. From the moment he arrived at the Tulsa Zoo, Kalu has held a special place in our hearts. We've watched him grow into a beautiful, mature and confident male lion and are thrilled for him to have the chance to start his own pride. We wish him the best and know Detroit will love him as much as we do. ♥️ 📸Tulsa Zoo staff and friends through the years

🚨 Announcement🚨 We're excited to welcome Prince as a new member of our African penguin colony!

Thank you to our friends at Turtles Fly Too for flying her here safely. You can identify Prince by the purple band on her left wing.

Our Malayan tiger cubs are in a playful Monday mood.
