Zoo

If you love Ellen Trout Zoo, and cake and punch, celebrate their 50th this Saturday.

As always, it was another great Zoo Brew! This year with the addition of wine at every booth, I think they really hit it out of the park...or uh, the zoo.

If you don't mind the drive, one big Texas zoo is letting teachers in free for the rest of the month, and friends that go along can get big discounts too.  Road trip!

The zoo in Lufkin just added a rare baby animal.  And in Tyler, a big expansion is making progress and should be finished this spring. Our zoos in East Texas may not be the biggest in Texas, but they're unique, interesting, and they keep on growing.

If you buzz over to San Antonio you can see this unreal light display in person.

The Ellen Trout Zoo is hosting a huge party for your little trick or treaters! This Friday and Saturday from 6-8 pm there will be games, characters, contests, and lots of candy at the Zoo.

What a great way to celebrate Earth Day this year! Ellen Trout Zoo has all the furry, scaled, and feathered reasons why we work to keep our planet clean.

I always get excited when there is a new baby born at Ellen Trout Zoo. This time it's an endangered Jaguar cub named Balam. He is super cute, and cuddly....for now! Take a look at some of these exclusive candid shots from the zoo.

The Ellen Trout Zoo has seen two Bay Duikers born in the last six weeks.

Here are a few ideas about events happening around Lufkin and Nacogdoches around Halloween, so you and the kids can plan accordingly. Don't miss out!

Do you know what a Bay Duiker is? Without Googling it?

Just got this link for the Tiger Cam today at Ellen Trout Zoo today, and I am hooked.  I kept it up on my computer all afternoon and shouted "Tigers! There Grrrr ate!" every time they showed up on the screen.  Very cool that you can also talk control of the camera...
