We’re thrilled to celebrate National Zookeeper Week by shining a spotlight on the incredible dedication, compassion, and hard work of our animal care team. From early mornings to late nights, our keepers and animal care interns go above and beyond to ensure every animal receives the best possible care. To honor their efforts, we spent time capturing special moments between each of them and one of their favorite animal companions. These photos are a small but heartfelt way to say thank you—and to share with you the unique bonds that make this work so meaningful. Here’s to our keepers—thank you for all you do!
