Zoo Mobile - 6/19/23

Thank you to Kansas City Zoo Ambassadors Ashley & Claire (Mobile Zoo) for coming out to the Fairmount Community Center and teaching us all a bunch of new information!

Here are just a few things we learned from the Mobile Zoo visit:

  • Male Madagascar Hissing Roaches have little "bumps" or "battle horns" on their heads.

  • The Blue-Tongued Skink is the largest skink native to Australia

  • The KC Zoo has 7 Elephants capable of producing 2,000lbs of manure daily, which is composted into "Zoo Manu" and can be purchased.

  • The Amazon Parrot is a very social bird, that enjoys listening to music, watching tv, and socializing with their handlers!
