“Maya” the Jaguar’s Birthday Celebration
Friday, October 28
Come celebrate all things spotted as we say “Happy Birthday” to “Maya” the jaguar during Boo at the Zoo! “Maya” was born at the zoo three years ago to proud parents “Nabalam” and “Muchacho.”
Watch as “Maya” gets her special birthday surprise at 11:30 am. In addition to all of the Boo at the Zoo festivities, children can visit our conservation craft station where they can learn how the Palm Beach Zoo is helping to save this endangered cat.
