Rocky Mountain Bighorn Sheep
Bighorn sheep are sure-footed animals and have rough pads on the bottom of their two-toed, spread-out hooves. These pads allow them added traction as they move across the rocky cliffs of their native habitat.
Please note:
There are some exciting changes in store at the Rosamond Gifford Zoo! As we prepare for improvements to the main entrance and parking lot, we ask for your patience when visiting.
The main entrance to the zoo is currently inaccessible. As such, we ask that you follow the signs, which will lead you to a fenced walkway through the staff parking lot to the side entrance of the main building. The entrance and walkway will remain accessible for all. Once inside, you will be able to enjoy the zoo as you usually do.
This project, which is expected to last approximately six months, will transform the front of the zoo with many exciting changes. We will be sure to update you as those changes occur. Thank you for your understanding and continued support of the Rosamond Gifford Zoo.
Twilight at the Zoo! programs are fun, educational experiences for adults ages 21 and older.
