Today is International Ungulate Day

What’s an ungulate?

Glad you asked. Ungulates are hoofed animals—like giraffes! šŸ¦’

And honestly, if we’re celebrating ungulates… we’re celebrating the tallest of them all. šŸ’›

Giraffes aren’t just known for their long necks they use to reach leaves other animals can’t, helping shape their ecosystem. Plus, those unique spot patterns? No two are the same. ✨

So today, we’re giving a big shoutout to our long-legged friends and all the amazing ungulates out there!

Come join us on June 6, 2026, at 10:00am at Binder Park Zoo for an in-person training. This training will teach you how you can monitor the butterfly population right in your own neighborhood or here at the zoo.

Happy World Parrot Day! 🦜

Today we’re celebrating our vibrant and vocal friend, Stevie, our Blue Fronted Parrot šŸ’ššŸ’™

Parrots are known for their intelligence, bright personalities, and incredible ability to mimic sounds—but they also play an important role in their ecosystems as seed dispersers!
