Wallace, the baby Hartmann's Mountain zebra, was born on June 2nd.

Morgan Saxton from FOX13's 'The PLACE' spoke with Interim Animal Care Supervisor, Isaura and Guest Engagement Supervisor, Tauni and met some of the resident animals in the African Savanna.

In the grasslands area guests can find giraffes, zebras, an ostrich, and more!

The resident African lions, African crested porcupines, and meerkats are also part of the African Savanna habitat.

This summer, guests will see the youngest giraffe Reyna in the African Savanna for the first time!

In Twiga Terrace the Utah's Hogle Zoo offers a giraffe feeding experience.
