I went to the zoo over the holiday weekend and shot a few videos to share.

African Elephant Crossing at Cleveland Metroparks Zoo: A look at the female elephants in the five-acre African Elephant Crossing at Cleveland Metroparks Zoo. Moshi, the most independent of the herd, needed some coaxing to cross from one side to the other. The African Elephant Crossing opened in May.



Baboons look for food at the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo: The hamadryas baboons explore their habitat for food at the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo. The zookeepers hid their food in boxes and bags for them to look through to find the food.



Animals at the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo: Take a look at some of the animals you might see at the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo. This video includes swans and cygnets (baby swans), a joey (baby kangaroo), a tortoise, sulfer crested cockatoos, camels, a zebra, a giraffe, a polar bear and a spectacled bear.
