Zoo News Sunday: Halloween, babies and new sea creatures!

Hi everyone in Bloggerville. Sorry I missed Thursday, very busy these days. So, let’s get to the news.

Boy are there lots of Halloween celebrations! Here is a special section dedicated to Zoo events.

Enjoy the Zoo for a "Spooktacular" Halloween
I bet I’m going to find lots of Halloween celebrations this month. Here’s the first one.

Boo at the Zoo
Live near the Lake Superior Zoo? Check this out for Halloween.

Another great Boo at the Zoo celebration. Go if you’re in the Albuquerque area.

What great ideas! If you’re in the Omaha area these two events should be on your list of must dos.

What would my zoo news be without baby announcements? Here they are:

Columbus Zoo welcomes eight newborns in 2008
This might have some repeats in it, but they sure are having lots of babies there.

Baby boomlet at Virginia Zoo
Okay, is there some type of competition going on? First we have 8 babies and now ten? Anyway, I think it’s cool that zoos are having so many babies.

Okapi Baby!
What a cutie! I like his markings on his front legs.

Disney's Animal Kingdom welcomes baby giraffe Bonsu
Another baby giraffe. I can’t imagine having a baby that is 6 feet tall, can you?

Other zoo news happenings and more:

Twins! Great, now what about those names?

I know this isn’t zoo news, but it’s really cool. Imagine, 274 new species of sea life! Check out the slideshow too, they are very interesting to see.

Plans to create first 'eco-zoo'
This looks really cool. I don’t know how comfortable I’d be walking through the tiger exhibit, I’d have to see it first.

Well, zoo fans, that’s all for today. If you’re in the USA, enjoy Columbus Day tomorrow. See you Tuesday!
Zebee out and running free, well at least around my exhibit.
