In 1947, 42.5 acres within Kapi`olani Park, was designated as the Honolulu Zoo. A Master Plan in 1984, was developed for a Tropical Zoological Garden. All exhibits were organized into three tropical ecological zones: the African Savanna, Asian and American Tropical Forests, and Pacific Islands. There are approximately 900 different animals from the tropics that now reside at the Honolulu Zoo. Komodo Dragons, orangutans, elephants, primates, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and a variety of African animals can be viewed in their specially-designed habitats daily.
Mission: HONOLULU ZOO'S MISSION: To inspire stewardship of our living world by providing conservation, education, and meaningful experiences to our community. The Honolulu Zoo emphasizes Pacific tropical island ecosystems and our traditional values of mālama (caring) and ho`okipa (hospitality).

Happy 35th birthday to our easy going, lovable, rolling in the mud, always letting his mate Satsuki eat the best treats first, boy Corky! To many, many more mud wallows and dips in the pool bobbing for apples!

The Euphorbia leucocephala, also known as the Flor-de-nino or puno-puno is a tall shrub with a rounded crown and thin green and white blades native to Central America from southern Mexico to El Salvador. The shrub morphs between Thanksgiving and New Years almost overnight to a beautiful white that is sometimes referred to as a mountain of snow. Like the poinsettia, puno-puno is daylength sensitive and produces its blooms during the months when the night are long and the days are shorter. Come admire the puno-puno in our volunteer garden during your next visit to the zoo.

In this season of Thanksgiving, at the Honolulu Zoo we continue to be thankful for our dedicated staff and the opportunities we have had to grow and provide even greater care for our animals. Keeper Bethany with our Keiki Zoo is one of those great examples. With support from the Honolulu Zoo Society Bethany was able to attend the Zoo Hoofstock Trim Program in Colorado to learn about hoof care and bring home her knowledge to share with other keeper staff. Together, everyone can work hands on to keep our animals happy and healthy.

The water lily is an aquatic plant with lovely blossoms that come in shades of pink, yellow, red, pastel oranges, and white, some of which are “changeables” that can change their coloration as the bloom progresses to open. They have a base that is buried in the mud and rounded, waxy-coated leaves on long slender stalks that like to reside and float in quiet freshwater habitats.
Since the flowers close at night and reopen in the morning at first sunlight many look at the lily as a symbol of renewal and a way of starting a new.

Starting Tuesday, Nov. 17, the Honolulu Zoo will be returning to a 7-day a week schedule. The zoo will now be open every day from 10 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. with the grounds closing at 3:30 p.m.
.
“The Honolulu Zoo is one of the city’s many great outdoor attractions and a place to learn about conservation and protecting the animals of our planet,” said Mayor Kirk Caldwell. “As we approach the holidays, the zoo is a great and safe place, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic, for families to take their children where they can be outdoors, enjoy nature, and learn about the many endangered animals living at the zoo, all while practicing physical distancing and wearing face coverings.”
.
The zoo’s safety protocols are still in effect for workers and visitors, including mandatory face coverings (except for children under five and those with medical conditions), physical distance markers at exhibits, and ushers to moderate and limit the number of visitors allowed in certain sections of the zoo at one time.

Owls symbolize a variety of things from wisdom and intelligence, to the paranormal. To be a successful hunter owls use binocular vision, 270 degrees of sight, velvety feathers for silent flight and sharp talons. These precision hunting abilities can be seen across species, like the Honolulu Zoo’s pueo and barn owl. Check out more about these amazing animals on this episode of Zoo Niele!

Its Orangutan Caring Week and we wanted to share with everyone why we ❤️ Orangutans so much! Orangutans, or “people of the forest”, are incredible arboreal animals spending most of their time up in the trees brachiating or moving through the trees with their 7-9-foot arm spans! They travel through the trees primarily eating different types of fruit and then distributing seeds along the forest floor creating new growth. Unlike other great apes, such as chimpanzees and gorillas, orangutans can be found solitarily. Adult males live solitary lives and male adolescents can sometimes be seen traveling with other males. Females are semi-solitary, often seen with two offspring at a time such as an infant, a juvenile, and one approaching adolescents. Today orangutans are listed as a critically endangered species by the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species due to deforestation from palm oil, mining, logging, and fires. Illegal hunting and the animal trade have also caused a decline in wild populations. Today and everyday #goorange , make a difference, and raise awareness for orangutans. To learn more about #orangutancaringweek visit www.orangutancaringweek.com .

Guinea fowl are endemic to Africa but have been domesticated and are widespread throughout the US, Britain, the West Indies, and are even seen in Hawaii.

At the Honolulu Zoo we support the Manoa Cliff Native Forest Restoration Project’s work restoring the native flora on 6 acres along the Manoa Cliff Trail at the back of Manoa Valley. The hard work and dedication of these volunteers has resulted in the successful regeneration of now flourishing koa, ‘oha wai, ‘ōhi’a, hame, koki’o ke’oke’o, kōpiko, māmaki, and manono and the re-cultivating of this native forest - all located within 5 miles of urban Honolulu.

African penguins are a tropical penguin species that are found off the south-western coast of Africs between Namibia and Algoa Bay, near Port Elizabeth, South Africa. These fascinating birds live in dense colonies on 24 off shore islands. These colonies are adjacent to very heavily trafficked shipping routes making them vulnerable to oil spills. They are also subject to habitat destruction and overfishing They are listed as an endangered species by the IUCN. Here at the Honolulu Zoo we support SANCCOB with their efforts to aid and rescue African penguins and other seabirds in the wild.

Japanese giant salamanders are the second-largest salamander species in the world and endemic to Japan where they are commonly known as the Ōsanshōuo or “giant pepper fish”. They can be found in rivers with cold, fast-flowing water to help give them a well oxygenated environment. The Japanese giant salamander has been federally protected as a special natural monument by the Japanese Agency for Cultural Affairs since 1952 due to its cultural and educational significance. Here at the Honolulu Zoo we support the Hanzaki Institute with their efforts to research and protect this species in the wild. Habitat loss due to natural water ways being converted to dams, the unfortunate illegal introduction of the Chinese giant salamander into the river systems of Japan, and hybridization risking the genetic integrity of the species all threaten the survival of the Japanese giant salamander.
