We are so excited to announce the habitat opening of the muskox expansion project at the Alaska Zoo ! With the fencing and transition areas complete, female muskox Maya and Sarah Elizabeth were given access to the new expanded habitat on the morning of December 7, 2024. Herd male Little Rock will be given access at a later time. A new daily routine will begin as zookeepers train the females and male to switch in and out of the old and new areas through the new chute. We could not be happier wit
