OREGON ZOO . PORTLAND, OREGON . WWW.OREGONZOO.ORG
More baby elephants have been born at
the Oregon Zoo than at any zoo in the world!
All zoos share the mission of long-term preservation of species. We cooperate on breeding programs, share animal availability lists, and individual zoos keep genealogy books listing all the individuals of that species living in zoos.
At days end, when the zoo is closed, the keepers once again make the rounds to check on all our animals.
