The ABQ BioPark is dedicated to whole-life care for every animal in our care, from those who are born or hatched here to providing customized senior care for those living in their golden years. Every species has a different lifespan and different needs, and every individual, too! Our expert animal care staff and veterinarians make sure each senior is as comfortable as they can be during their time with us. Buccaneer (male) and June (female), both reticulated giraffes, are 22 and 31 years respect

The ABQ BioPark Zoo is overjoyed to become the home of an Andean bear for the first time in our history! This species is native to the Andes Mountains in northern and western South America, and is listed as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List due to habitat loss. Andean bears are also called spectacled bear, South American bear, Andean short-faced bear or mountain bear; but you can call this one Ben! Read Ben's story and then come visit him in the renovated habitat near the Cat walk: https://bit.ly/
