Just wanted to say at the time 4:08 there was a guy taking pictures with his camera sitting on the fake rock and when u zoomed in That is my brother Jim who has been working at the Brookfield Zoo for the past 30yrs! Thanks so much!
Billy schulz Awesome! I bet he's really enjoyed his work. So funny I happened to get him on video and you happened to stumble accross this video. Small world!
Zoo is free ($15 parking though) through end of February. Traveling from Detroit tomorrow especially to see the Sloth ambassodor in the Wildlife encounter. Thanks for posting your video to give me rough idea of what to see there.
I got to visit the Brookfield Zoo again sometime. It's been a while since I've been there. I got to pet the manta rays when they had that special event.
9:18 Caiman Lizard. They are neat lizards. They seem ancient like crocodilians but are intelligent like monitors. They are mainly snail eaters from my knowledge. 13:36 Gibbons. Most primates do not like water because they are so dense they have issues staying above water. Anteaters do like to swim a little and the otters. Interesting all the variety of animals in that room. I imagine it is a nightmare for the zoo keepers to maintain that room. 17:59 "Are you gonna do somethin' or what?!?!" 18:08 "Here, have some poo. Brat." ~Sir Penguin. I love it when the animals have a sense of humor.
Hey I wanted to say that taking a trip to Brookfield zoo again will be worth it because first things first they are creating a new outdoor habitat for the apes that should be fully built by late may 2025! Plus they are bringing a new gorilla group when that outdoor habitat is done! After that they’re gonna start a new phase but it won’t be done till 2034 for the zoos 100th bday. They’re gonna remodel 4 different areas of the zoo that are kinda across from each other to transform it into a one big natural African area, they want the African animals in the same area since they are technically separated right now which means they’re bringing back elephants and Nile hippos for the first time since they left in 2010! After that they’re gonna create a new sea lion cove and penguin enclosure by the north gate so the seals current pool can get demolished and become the new outdoor pool for the dolphins! There’s a perfect video that has perfect explanation of the Brookfield zoos master plan go check it out! Brookfield zoo master plan by the virtual zoo!
quick question: do you think it would be okay if I left my hedgehog for three weeks. someone will be taking care of her, but will she like lose my scent, or "forget me".
@@earthling1984 ok, they are creating a new outside access for the apes and should be done by April! Plus the dolphin house got remodeled and new koalas and bears got welcomed to the zoo so hope you come and see more of their plans that they already have for the future!
I work at this Zoo at multiple places you showed.
Brookfield is amazing and a joy to work there every day.
This takes me back lol, haven't been to Brookfield in a good minute. Thanks for the upload!!

After you get your tickets, there's a bit of a walk. It's not long. You walk under a bridge, and keep following the path.

Karibu means 'welcome' in Swahili, not a reference to caribou.
Lol that makes sense :)
lol was the band Linkin Park named after the zoo?

Should be fine. Leave a piece of clothing of yours in the cage if you want. Wear an old tshirt before you go and put in cage.
+Earthling1984 thank you soo much! I will do that
i love this
When are you going again and film? They got new animals and new master plans coming up!
I do hope to go back again soon, maybe before winter, but maybe after.

Hey could u go to Brookfield zoo again please and put it on UA-cam because I love Brookfield zoo
If I go this summer I will be sure to record again :)
cool to have two zoos Denver just has one.
Hey Cory! Yeah most towns have one. Not really sure why we have two but we do. You have other good things in Colorado though :)
yes the mountains the fishing and well lots of things
+Earthling1984 the polar bear looks so unhappy
+Gaming Freak and Challenges Yeah they do at every zoo I see them. Always pacing in a pattern. Is sad.
Yeah! Colorado is still pretty neat though. Have you gone to the Denver Lights thing?
Beautifully............
Why didn't u went this summer to Brookfield zoo.
Alex Benitez I did, iust, didn't record that time. I'll record next time I go for sure!
Not sure why, but I expected this to be one of those 360 degree videos, still worth a watch though ;^>
I live near both if those zoos, I go to brookfield way more though.
I love your vidz
Thanks :)
Do you live in Chicago

Zoos are so loud and crazy with children.
Haha I went there before
Getting me a beer

Terrible
No
