Onager Conservation Updates - from The Wilds!

We've got something new and exciting happening with Cleveland Metroparks Zoo this summer: an onager project!

Dr. Mandi Shook, Cleveland Metroparks Zoo's Associate Research Curator, and Jason Wagman, Cleveland Metroparks Zoo's Graduate Research Associate are helming this project and assessing the animals and their progress.

Time Travel Tuesday: Troodon

This week's dinosaur had to work hard to prove size isn't everything!  The petite creature had a mean bite and very sharp teeth to accompany its unusually large brain.  Get ready to meet Troodon!

Time Travel Tuesday: Parasaurolophus

It's Tuesday once again, so hop on board the time travel machine and buckle up, because today we are going back 65 million years.  Let's see who can find the beautiful Parasaurolophus first!
