💧 Wendle's Summer Tip

Washing your vehicle this summer? Try giving it a bath on the grass instead of the driveway.

The soil helps naturally filter soap and other pollutants before they can reach storm drains and local waterways.

A simple change can make a big difference for our stormwater system!

🐺 Wolf PUPDATE: 7 Weeks Old! 🐺

The wolf pups are growing up fast and have officially moved into their new building and habitat area at Bramble Park Zoo!

Visitors may catch a glimpse of the wolf pups, but with a whole new world to explore, they may choose to stay inside as they adjust to their surroundings. Everything is new, exciting, and sometimes a little overwhelming for these curious youngsters.

This week, the wolf pups have been busy exploring their new home and learning about their neighbors. One of their favorite discoveries so far? 🦚 Peacocks! The wolf pups were completely captivated watching the colorful birds strut by. They've also been keeping an eye on the 🦬 bison, taking in all the sights and sounds of zoo life.

As the wolf pups continue settling in, Bramble Park Zoo asks visitors to help create a calm environment by avoiding loud noises, tapping, or knocking near the habitat.

Every day brings a new adventure for these growing wolf pups. Stop by the Zoo and see what they're up to next! 🐾
