It’s a Poppy party! 🎉 The Virginia Zoo's Poppy 🦧, a 7-month-old Bornean orangutan, got on a quick ZooTime video call with Poppy 🦛, the 2-month-old pygmy hippo at Metro Richmond Zoo. We’d say the call went “swimmingly,” but unlike hippos, orangutans aren’t known for their ability to swim. | Metro Richmond Zoo

One of the most magical moments at the zoo is hearing Oliver and Abby sing. 💙 Most mornings around opening, our siamangs fill the air with booming calls that can be heard up to 2 miles away. They sing to strengthen their bond and to mark territory. The duet is amplified by their inflatable throat sac. #metrorichmondzoo #rva #siamang | Metro Richmond Zoo

On these super hot days, our keepers give lots of different enrichment to keep our animals cool. We use sprinklers, ice treats, mud wallows, wet towels, frozen snacks, ice, and more. 💦 This morning our chimps enjoyed an ice block made of watermelon juice and peach puree. Yum! 🍉🍑 | Metro Richmond Zoo

It's been four months since a serious fire occurred in behind-the-scenes areas of the zoo. This new documentary tells the story of what happened that night and sheds light on the heroic acts of firefighters, emergency personnel, and zoo staff.
