Each year tons of food passes through the zoo’s diet kitchen. It takes a lot to feed the Zoo's more than 200 hungry mouths each day. Some of the food comes from local grocery stores or other human consumption suppliers. Other food comes from a number of companies that specialize in making formulated feeds for zoo animals.
Each year, the Zoo’s animals chomp through about 50 tons of food- that’s 100,000 pounds of fruits, vegetables,
meats, grains, hay, and feeds! |
