Our two lion viewing areas, or what we call the lion huts, will also be getting a makeover as part of our ReNEW the Zoo capital campaign. We're replacing the interior and exterior walls and roof, and installing new interactive, educational graphics.

A new feeding platform for Murphy the moose is also part of the ReNEW the Zoo campaign. This new experience lets guests get up close to one of North America’s most iconic animals while feeding him bananas and fresh leaves, two of his favorite treats!

The largest project in the ReNEW the Zoo campaign is a new habitat for our red pandas. This habitat will create a more natural home for the pandas and support two breeding pairs, with the hope of welcoming red panda cubs. Inside the habitat, new climbing structures will encourage movement, exploration, and enrichment.

Located beneath a portion of the Canopy Tour, the new habitat will offer guests unique views from above and provide opportunities for behind-the-scenes tours of the pandas’ indoor home. Together, these enhancements balance animal well-being with meaningful opportunities for visitors to pause, observe, and connect.

Frank O. Zeise Construction Co. is serving as the general contractor for the red panda habitat project. The habitat will be named in memory of Rick Watermolen.
