Arctic Foxes Dress for Winter - Living in the bitter cold of the Arctic requires being ready when winter rolls in. Arctic foxes have adapted to their native frigid temperatures with features such as small ears and noses to keep heat close to their bodies. Their thick undercoats insulate them and even change color with the seasons for camouflage; grey or brown in the summer and white in the winter. Come see Denver Zoo's Arctic foxes in the Northern Shores exhibit, ready for winter in their white coats, next to the polar bear exhibit and learn more about them here.
Authentic Artifacts in Toyota Elephant Passage - Designers of Toyota Elephant Passage wanted to create an immersive experience for guests, making them feel as if they were stepping into Southeast Asia. Besides the animals and plants, this meant purchasing artifacts from the region itself. Most of the interpretive elements, from the tuk tuk to the baskets and umbrellas, were handpicked and shipped from Thailand to their new home here in Denver. Keep a look out for some of these authentic items on your next trip to Toyota Elephant Passage.
