You’re already familiar with our bison thanks to THE ZOO. Now, 8 purebred bison we received as a gift from the Fort Peck Assiniboine and Sioux tribes are on exhibit. This historic transfer is part of our longtime work on bison conservation. | Bronx Zoo

Last month, we shared that we had transferred six genetically pure Bronx Zoo-born bison to the Osage Nation in Oklahoma as part of a conservation program that has been years in the making. Enjoy this clip for an overview, then head over to the WCS website to view a longer video that documents this amazing conservation story: wcs.org | Bronx Zoo

Stroll into the week with this #MomentOfZoo brought to you by one of our resident southern white rhinos, Harry! | Bronx Zoo

Enjoy this summer moment with our southern white rhinos Harry and Zuberi! Make sure to stop by Zoo Center to see them during your next visit – you can also spot Asian greater one-horned rhinos from the Wild Asia Monorail. For an up-close encounter, sign up for a Private Rhino Connection: https://bit.ly/3OS1wCJ | Bronx Zoo

Enjoy a #MomentofZoo with our southern white rhinos. Here are some fun facts about rhinoceroses: 🦏 White and black rhinos are actually both the same color - gray! 🦏 They may look indestructible, but their skin is actually quite sensitive and can be prone to sunburn. 🦏 White rhinos are huge! They are the second largest land mammal in the world. 🦏 They are speedy! They can run at speeds of 30 to 40 mph. No wonder a herd of rhinos is known as a crash! | Bronx Zoo

We can’t wait to open the zoo tomorrow! Before we welcome you back in person, here’s another Zoodle to get you excited about one of our favorite animals: the American bison! #bronxzoodles | Bronx Zoo

It’s not just kids who like snow days! Our American bison enjoy romping through and rolling in the snow too. | Bronx Zoo
