Get your groove on! 🕺🏻 Male California condors “dance” for their mates to get them in the mood for breeding. This dazzling display is often an essential part of the bonding and courtship process between pairs. Stay tuned for the next episode of #LAZooCondorStories !

This handsome guy is Isim. He is one of the six critically endangered Bornean orangutans that call the L.A. Zoo home. Male orangutans are about twice the size of females, with an arm span of over seven feet!

Mountain tapirs, like Mojito here, are very rare. Fewer than 2,500 are estimated to remain in the wild. The L.A. Zoo is proud to care for three out of the four mountain #Tapirs remaining in human care in the United States, and support field conservation efforts.
