Because of you, we’re heading into 2021 in a much better place financially than we initially anticipated. However, the need and the work is still countless. We must continue to be great stewards of resources as we recover from these difficult times.

As part of our preventative health program for every animal at the Zoo, these are two short videos taken of an ultrasound of a pregnant Yellow Stingray (Urobatis jamaicensis). As this species gives live birth, and the pregnancy is late term, it is easy to see the baby stingrays in-utero breathing and practicing swimming with their large fins. We are happy to report that the mother and twin babies look great and we are expecting them to be born soon! | The Toledo Zoo
