It’s a roller coaster ride at the zoo. A beloved flamingo fights for his life, a cheetah gets a critical biopsy, and the keepers scramble to keep up.

This week: a deep dive into a rhino’s mouth, a group reindeer pedicure, a saucy monkey, a cuddly koala, and an afternoon stroll with a vulture.

Sea lions rejoice!  Long awaited Adventure Cove finally opens. Plus, a tiny loris and beloved iguana present strange mystery illnesses.

This week: a newborn sea lion pup struggles to stay alive, a celebrity bat’s mysterious holey wings, and a zebra named Holly hits the spa!

Tonight: a naughty red panda mom makes a play for attention, a moose with a nasty cough, and a cherished cheetah beats the odds and hits a milestone!

This week at the zoo: it’s raining baby giraffes, Dr. Priya gives Connie the Elephant an eye exam, and two camel brothers embark on a new life.

Tonight: Some of the most deadly patients at the zoo: a 200 lb. python with killer back pain, a girl-shy male lion, and a bear with a gnarly cough.

With nearly 6,000 veterinary cases and well over 100 births each year, the team at the Columbus Zoo has no shortage of incredible drama.
