Each summer, zookeepers at the Alaska Zoo have a theme for the names they use to refer to animals who come in need of care and placement. These names are used internally for record keeping and for zookeeper use. And the theme for the summer of 2026? Drumroll please…a food theme! Get ready for some creative names. Comment your ideas 🍓🍭🫑🥨 And thank you to Curator Sam and some of our awesome zookeepers for documenting the selection! #alaska #anchorage #nonprofit #alaskazoo #wildliferescue | The
