TYLER, Texas — Meet Zuberi, a zany zebra dad at the Caldwell Zoo! At 9 years old, Zuberi has been a long time dad, and he will soon add a new foal to his family. Between now and July, he and fellow Caldwell Zoo zebra Amali are expecting a new baby. Baby zebras are fast learners in their first moments of life. "Within the hour (of birth), they're up and trying to get up, stand, move around," said Michelle Shockley, supervisor of small mammals.

Xena June's story fell upon the community and resonated with one special little girl.

TYLER, Texas — Happy World Environment Day! World Environment Day is celebrated every year on June 5. It serves as a reminder to protect the environment and to beat plastic pollution. According to the United Nations, 11 million tons of plastic end up in the water each year. A good portion of that is microplastic. Microplastic is a piece of plastic pollution that is less than 5 millimeters long. It can end up in the stomachs of aquatic creatures and harm marine life.

TYLER, Texas — Summer is inching closer, but spring flowers are still holding on, especially in the pollinator garden at the Caldwell Zoo. "We are attracting quite an array of pollinators. We have hummingbirds, bumblebees, honeybees, really tiny bees such as hover bees, moths, butterflies," said Andrew Dias, groundskeeper at the zoo. Around 75 percent of our food relies on pollination, Dias added.

TYLER, Texas — Meet Thumb, the smallest box turtle at the Caldwell Zoo. At just a few months old, he is only barely larger than a quarter. "He is growing big and strong behind the scenes because he's just a little bit too small to be outside right now," said Dallas Goodwin, keeper of reptiles at the Caldwell Zoo. It will take him roughly five years to match the size of the other box turtles at the zoo. "It just kind of depends on how good of an eater he is," Goodwin said.
