ZooNooz - May 2006


It has been a busy and exciting spring at the Oshawa Zoo!

The Oshawa Zoo will begin opening during the week one week earlier than normal.
Beginning May 15 we will be opening from 11AM - 2PM weekdays and 10:30 AM - 5PM on weekends.
Hours will be extended as summer nears and will be 10AM - 5PM daily when school gets out.

The start of the season is a great time to buy a 2006 Season's Pass. You can create your own Pass online at http://www.oshawazoo.ca/pass.html and SAVE 20% off the regular price!

We are finally able to announce the birth of Powder, our Albino wallaby - only one in Canada!

She has proven to be a bit of a pouch potato, spending most of her time in a man made pouch hanging around a keeper's neck.

She will be available to be viewed and petted at the entrance of our Zoo. Powder likes to take frequent naps, so show up early!

Our baby Barbados sheep, Tina, and baby llama, Violet, will also be in the nursery, close to the entrance of the Zoo. Feeding times will be 11 AM and 3:30 PM. Bring your camera!

We are also pleased to announce that one of our mountain goats, Oompah, who was a bottle baby, has just given birth to a little girl!
Congratulations Oompah!

Until next time!
