Winter 2008 - The Wild Times

Over the past year at the zoo, we have been developing an arctic themed area as a major part of our North American section.

When looking for a new home for the arctic wolves in 2002, it was decided that the best place for them in the North American area would be near another resident of the arctic at the zoo, the reindeer. The arctic wolves moved into their home in 2003 and were followed in 2004 by the snow geese and emperor geese. 

Just this year we received a pair arctic fox from the Assiniboine Park Zoo in Winnipeg, and they were introduced to their new habitat in April.
