Zoos Use Creative Methods to Beat the Heat
News summary

Zoos across the world are taking creative measures to help animals cope with extreme heat. In Florida, the Palm Beach Zoo uses ice blocks, frozen fish, and chilled pools to keep animals like tigers and otters cool, while tortoises enjoy cool showers. Similarly, the Phoenix Zoo introduced 10 tons of snow and various frozen treats, including 'bloodsicles' for carnivores and Gatorade popsicles for baboons. Rome’s zoo has also provided frozen treats as the city faces a severe heatwave. Meanwhile, the Metro Richmond Zoo keeps its animals comfortable with ice treats, wet towels, and mud wallows. These efforts not only ensure animal welfare but also provide an engaging experience for zoo visitors.
