Did someone say snow? ❄️🌨️ This past weekend, Central Ohio was blanketed with heavy snowfall, with some areas receiving more than a foot of snow! While some animals decided to remain in their indoor habitats to watch the flurries, the animals in North America Trek and Polar Frontier were built for it. As a reminder, the Columbus Zoo will remain CLOSED through February 1, 2026. In the meantime, learn more about how animals at the Zoo experience winter in this blog: https://www.columbuszoo.org/bl

While you’ve been hiding away from the snow this week, black bear cubs, Ursula and Yzma, have been embracing it! 🐻🐻 As a reminder, the Columbus Zoo is closed due to local weather conditions today through Sunday, February 1, 2026. Stay warm, Central Ohio, and we look forward to seeing you again soon! | Columbus Zoo and Aquarium
