After taking part in the Boilermaker Walk on Saturday, be sure to head over to the Utica Zoo! On Saturday, the zoo will announce a new animal that will call Utica home. 

The new animal will be announced this Saturday at the top of African Alley at 11AM. At that time, Utica Zoo Staff will be present to answer questions about the new animal.

The public will also get the chance to vote on the new animals’ names by donating towards their favorite name at the exhibit. Voting will run until August 1st, and we will announce the winning names at the annual Brewfest event on August 1st as well.
