Did you know ravens are super smart, even up there with chimps and dolphins? Studies have shown that if a raven knows another raven is watching it hide some food, it will pretend to hide the food in one location while really hiding it in another. Just like your kids with their siblings, right? 😆

#MeetTheTeam #NationalZookeeperWeek Meet Bart, Assistant Curator "I have a few good animal friends at the park, but my favorite would have to be Rosie the Crested porcupine. Rosie is quite playful and loves to do obstacle courses. She absolutely loves carrots and sweet potatoes. Rosie is quite a happy girl and loves people. Her favorite time is when she goes out on her leash." - Bart
