Happy Father’s Day to all the amazing dads out there—and to some of the dedicated dads in our zoo family! 🩵
🐧 Penguin dads are known for their incredible commitment, often helping incubate eggs and protect their chicks.
🐒 Siamang and spider monkey dads play an active role in raising young, carrying and caring for their offspring as they grow.
🦬 In many herd species, fathers help protect the group, using their size, strength, and vigilance to keep everyone safe.
Today we're celebrating the fathers, father figures, and caregivers—both human and animal—who help their families thrive. ❤️
