Celebrating Pride at Brookfield Zoo Chicago
By embracing diverse perspectives and promoting equitable opportunities, we strive to create a more compassionate and connected world for all species. Just as the natural world thrives on diversity, so, too, does our human community.
Brookfield Zoo Chicago’s “Zoo for All” initiative reflects this commitment, guiding our efforts to build an inclusive wildlife conservation movement. As part of this initiative, we’re excited to host a week of Pride celebrations at the Zoo from June 24-30 and offer virtual programming all month long to welcome and celebrate the LGBTQ+ community-both with the public and our Zoo family of staff and volunteers. We hope you'll join us in these celebrations and in our ongoing commitment to diversity and inclusion.

Great seal
👁️👄👁️👂
These wonderful birds often wake me with their morning chorus, settled in the gum trees along our road. Not much to laugh about, stuck in a gloomy cage.

Satanists... very anti-christian great job
She wants out, she can feel the world

Where’s his mother while he’s doing his training session?
He is no longer living with his mom. This mimics what would happen in the wild.
What’s his relationship with all the other seals 🦭?
The seal 🦭 is doing a very good job with his training.
What happens to the pups 🐶 mother?
She is busy caring for the two pups who still live at the Zoo.
So are one of the wolf 🐺 pups are kept in your zoo and some of your pups are in the zoo!
They’re very cute!
🎈 Happy birthday 🎂 Mongoose Pups 🐶!
Do mongooses share similarities with meerkats?
Yes. Meerkats are actually part of the mongoose family!
I saw the wolfs AND I SAW THE ONE WOLF AND 2 BABY WOLVES
Let us guess … if you don’t keep them occupied with enrichment activities they’ll get bored, pick the locks, rewire the place, get your purchase cards and order in a pallet of mealworms? 🙃 So cute.
Worst bird to wake up to in the morning with a hangover

Both are adorable and should be protected.
What a great way to introduce not only new individuals to a struggling population, but also increase genetic diversity in the wild population. You all did an amazing job on this one!
This is such fantastic news!
Aww so adorable
OMG SO CUTE! I CANT WAIT TO GO SEE THE WOLVES NEXT TIME!!!
They’re both cute 🥰
I have a wallaby in my zoo, and his name is Wally.
Yeah, even besides the size difference, they have some visual disparity that makes them easy enough to tell apart. They're pretty much equally cute, though.
They're so cute XD
Both types of otters are precious!

Is he Africa lion or asiatic lion?
