WE LOVE YOU COOKIE! Our 8 year old was and still is very thrilled that she got to see you today when she got home from school. She was telling her one year old sister about you and all that you mean to her and the zoo. We are happy to see that retirement has treated you very well so far. Here is to many, many more years of retired life and many, many more videos that your millions of adoring fans may see.

I remember when the Dolphin tank was built and opened.
Brookfield Zoo is one of the best in the country. Established and well maintained. Lots of great memories. Have a great time. Don't forget your camera.

Kirsten Pristo-Grosskopf A little disappointed in Holiday Magic last night. Nothing was open, no animals to be found, but I have to say that the new laser show was a success! So many changes. I miss my little quaint zoo! Please don't become so comercialized!!!

It was a young guy who took over his dad's business from Bollingbrook? Made me realize I have no concept of how old I really am! And maybe that is a good thing!
