Hello everyone!
First, we want to thank those of you who participated in our animal naming contest and interacted with us during our #OurVirtualZoo campaign, we love hearing from you and getting to know your animals at home! Thank you for making the best of the situation, it's been fun! We went through all of the name submissions you sent in, and we have picked a winner! Without further ado, our new names for our baby otters are: Chubs, George and Splash! Thank you to Tricia M. for the new names! Chubs, George and Splash are fun loving otters who enjoy playing and cuddling with each other, and they love love love to eat! Fun fact about otters: when they're grown up, they can consume up to 11kg of food every day to support their high metabolism – that's about a quarter of its own body weight! Thank you Tricia M. again for the great names, and thank you to everyone who participated! We cant wait for you to meet them in person! Stay safe everyone!

Due to the Covid-19 crisis, we are postponing our grand opening to the public until further notice. Our main priority is to keep our animals and our staff safe, as well as the rest of the community. Until we can announce a new grand opening date, we will still be holding our animal naming contest virtually through our Facebook and Instagram platforms. We will continue to also post fun and interactive content through our social media and website so we can educate and entertain our community while we are practicing social distancing. More information on the contest and other future events will be announced shortly. In the mean time, stay home and stay safe Pullman! Welcome to Pullman Northwest Zoo! We are so excited to become apart of the community in Pullman, WA. First things first, we would like to tell you a little bit about ourselves! We are a wildlife sanctuary that is home to many different animals that are native to the Pacific Northwest. Our goal is to provide a safe and happy home for these animals, one where they can thrive and live to their fullest. We aim to do this through our wonderful staff of professional zoologists, veterinarians, and zookeepers that keep our zoo running and our animals healthy! As a part of this, we want the Pullman Northwest Zoo to be a place of learning and fun for everyone. We will have education tours throughout the day and fun interactive activities for the kids! Complete with our PNZ gift shop and cafe, a trip to the zoo will become your newest favorite activity in Pullman! We hope to see you here, and as always, Go Cougs! |
