Zoo reports arrival of wild-born fossa and previews Zubillations fundraiser

City parks staff reported that the zoo recently received a male fossa, named Lex, that was brought in from the wild as part of a species survival program (SSP). Staff said the animal adds a new genetic line to the program and will later return to the partner institution that provided him.

Staff also urged the public to attend Zubillations, the zoo’s annual fundraising event. The event includes a dinner and auction, is western-themed this year, and tickets are available through the zoo.

The report was informational; staff offered to answer questions and encouraged board members and residents to attend the fundraiser.
