Jaguar "Jaguary" in January



Animal keepers at the Jacksonville Zoo and Gardens provide enrichment items to the animals on a regular basis, as a way to encourage natural behaviors. On the third Saturday of each month, the Zoo features a themed enrichment day for the guests to watch their favorite animals enjoy special treats.

This Saturday, the 17th of January, the Zoo is featuring Jaguars! We call it "Jaguary." As seen in an older photographic sequence, a young female jaguar from Guyana goes back and forth between boxes, ice, and a happy face pinata. Review the enrichment schedule on www.jacksonvillezoo.org
