Zoo's Tembo Trail set to re-open May 18

TOLEDO, OH (PRESS RELEASE) - Tembo Trail, home to the Toledo Zoo’s dynamic new elephant exhibit, is slated to open Friday, May 18.

Although the centerpiece of the new project is the $15 million elephant facility, funded by Lucas County 2006 capital levy voters and the zoo’s private capital campaign, Tembo Trail is more than elephants; it’s a fresh new look and feel to the area formerly known as the Savanna.

TOLEDO, OH (PRESS RELEASE) - Egg hunts are one of the fun rituals of spring. At the Toledo Zoo, this tradition comes with a zoo twist: the Animal Egg Hunt Friday, April 6. Animals all across the zoo track down papier-mâché eggs, hard-boiled eggs and other treats hidden in their habitats. The day features storytimes and crafts in Nature’s Neighborhood.

The Animal Egg Hunt is more than just fun for visitors - it’s a great form of enrichment for the animals. Through enrichment, we stimulate the animals’ senses and encourage natural behaviors. It’s a key component of their overall well-being.
