Mary Kennedy Took my Dad to see my Mom's Brick at the Consevatory. She passed away on Black Friday last year. Lots of Family Memories from Como. Is it possible to get a brick next to hers in the future?

Reacquaint yourself with a distant cousin. It's Orangutan Awareness Weekend November 14 & 15! Learn about these amazing apes with a weekend of activities. There will be special orangutan training demonstrations, Orangutan Zoo Keeper talks, Banana Gardener talks, puppet shows, crafts, and games. Kids can see how they m...easure up to an orangutan by comparing their arm span against a 7 foot orangutan cut out. Who's in?Read More

You know me.... always a sucker for a beautiful red ape! And a quick disclaimer: it is NOT advisable for non-trained individuals to physically interact with an orangutan. They are 8-10 times stronger than an adult human male! This was a VERY special circumstance and obviously NOT at Como Zoo.

P.S. Don't tell the Como red apes! Our Amanda would never forgive me. ;)
