Getting my ducks in a row for Summer


Nothing says Spring like ducklings. This past week we got in 4 ducklings of various breeds. They will participate in the Creature Feature show this Summer which highlights animals' natural behaviors in a story type format. Initially the ducklings were anxious when I was around, scurrying away and peeping at me. Now though, they perk up at the sound of my voice and look up at me. Come see them this Summer in the Creature Feature show. Of course by that time, they won't be ducklings but full grown ducks!

KSTP Phone-a-Thon

Next week on Wednesday, 13 April, KSTP and Como Friends will host a phone-a-thon for Como Zoo. Call in to sponsor an animal at the Como Zoo and help support your favorite zoo resident. Your contribution will be used to enhance animal habitats and maintain the best care possible for all of Como Zoo’s animals. Animal sponsorships are available in many affordable price ranges. This year two residents of Como Zoo will make the push to become the most sponsored animal of the year. Two-toed sloth "Chloe" and African Penguin "Cupid" will be making appearances on the 11:00 and 4:30 news to help encourage the public to support Como Zoo. There are many animals that can be sponsored. Which one is your favorite?
