Cameron Park Zoo

The Vulturine Guineafowl is also known as the "royal guineafowl" because it tends to have the most striking appearance of the 7 types of guineafowl. Here at the zoo, our African Aviary is home to 2, named Pain and Panic. (Named for their tendency to alarm call whenever keepers get too close.) #wingedwednesday

Dont forget on August 23rd we are hosting a free event where we will be showing a live coral spawn in the Gulf of Mexico. Listen to live music, purchase a refreshing Coral Cooler, and learn about why coral reefs are important to not only aquatic life like our little maroon clownfish, but people too!

A scientific breakthrough at the Florida Aquarium could save America's 'Great Barrier Reef'

Congrats to the Florida Aquarium and their amazing team! What an awesome accomplishment!
