Zoo Enrichment Shapes Winter Visits and Animal Fun
A zoo promotes winter visits and explains enrichment practices that boost animal health. From three curious otters to camels with plastic barrels and elephants with logs, staff design items for exploration and feeding. Summer treats include fruit pops and rope toys, all aimed at reducing stress and promoting natural foraging behaviors. The facility invites visitors daily 8 am to 4 30 pm and notes enrichment ideas circulated via the American Zoo and Aquarium Association.
