The Zoo is open today, Sept. 4. Following recent power outages, some areas and amenities may be temporarily closed or modified. Thank you for your patience.
Giant Anteater
(Myrmecophaga tridactyla)
With no teeth to help them chew their food, anteaters use their two-foot-long tongues to collect ants. You can see Bissell and Mojo, the anteaters who call the Zoo home, along with their shaggy hair and claws, closer than ever before inside Fred and Barbara Erb Discovery Trails.
