Omo's First Year at CMZoo: Sharing Memories and Planning for a Party

We can hardly believe Omo will turn one year old on July 20! It's been a year of adorable ear wiggles, plops and boops with this boy, and it's been our joy to share him with you. Hear our Water's Edge: Africa keepers' favorite 'Omo-ments' over the past year.

To celebrate Omo's first birthday, our partners at Children's Hospital Colorado, are throwing him a party, and you're invited. Join us in Water's Edge on Wed., July 20 from 10 a.m. to noon, to make Omo a birthday card, learn about hippos at a special keeper talk at 11 a.m. and then watch Omo and his mom, Zambezi, enjoy a special birthday cake at 11:30 a.m. Advance daytime admission e-tickets are required to attend. You can get tickets at cmzoo.org/visit.
