Houston Zoo

May 4 - Cougar Den

Nicknamed, the “ghost cat,” cougars are known to be silent cats that are very athletic and can jump down 18 feet if necessary to ambush prey. Our Carnivore team provides our cougars, Shasta and Haley, with behavior-based enrichment where they illicit a natural behavior they would display in the wild like licking, scratching, sniffing, and more. Don’t miss Shasta guarding the class rings tomorrow from 9am-3pm. UH students can visit the Zoo for free with a valid student ID. Reserve your free ticket online: bit.ly/39AbiZm
