African lion Shera has been a protective sister, a bossy mate and a doting mother. After a life well lived, keepers are preparing to say goodbye to the matriarch of the pride.

At just two months old, our Asian elephant calf is playful, curious…and a little sassy. She’s exploring the outdoors with “auntie” Swarna, who’s teaching her to be an elephant.
Linh Mai will make her public debut on April 22, Earth Day.
