There`s a new species coming to the Zoo and we want you to guess who!
Here are your clues:
🌍 Their native range includes mainly southern Africa and parts of eastern Africa.
🌿 They’re herbivores that can spend much of their day grazing on grasses.
💚 We’re welcoming this species to the Zoo for the very first time!
Drop your guesses below and stay tuned tomorrow for the reveal! 👀
We were honored to welcome a very special guest to DZCA last week: Dr. Roberto Elias, wildlife veterinarian and one of our longest-standing conservation partners in Peru! 🐸
Roberto has been working alongside Denver Zoo Conservation Alliance since 2008, when our collaborative breeding program for the Titicaca water frog first began. In the years since, that partnership has grown to include the Lake Junín frog, Andean condors, and flamingos.
Using drone technology, Roberto and his team have recently discovered a new Andean condor nest (only the fourth ever reported in Peru!) and identified a new flamingo breeding site at Lake Junín. Data that is now directly informing government conservation policy.
As Roberto puts it, conservation comes down to three things: science, community, and action.
“You cannot conserve a species if you don’t know them. If you don’t involve the community, you cannot do this sustainably. And all the information that we get, we turn into action.”
When you visit DZCA, you’re not just seeing the animals here, you’re supporting the work happening on the ground in Peru.

FLOCK YEAH! Flock Party 2026 was our biggest and best yet, all because of you! 🦩✨💖
We toasted 130 years of Denver Zoo Conservation Alliance, spent an afternoon enjoying MORE animal experiences, food, drinks and live music, and most importantly, celebrated conservation in style.
Thank you for joining us, celebrating with us and supporting world-class animal care and wildlife conservation. We truly couldn`t do this without you.
Until next year! 💕
