Some of the newest residents which can be found in our Children's Zoo include: Tennessee fainting goats, St. Croix sheep, a Vietnamese pot-bellied pig, a domestic horse and a South American llama.

These goats are known for mountain climbing abilities and for their dramatic white coloration. We have a great homed owl which is now on exhibit outside our Cats & Primates Building across from the Red Panda exhibit.
