Protecting Our Flock
You may notice “Protecting Our Flock” signs around the zoo, especially near areas where wild geese tend to gather. These signs are part of our ongoing efforts to promote bird health and help prevent the potential spread of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (bird flu).
At Tulsa Zoo, we remain committed to the safety and wellbeing of the animals in our care. One of the easiest ways guests can support this effort is by not feeding wild geese on zoo grounds. Feeding encourages large gatherings of wild birds, which increases the risk of disease transmission—not only among wildlife, but also to the zoo’s bird population.
Thank you for helping us protect our flock. Together, we’re creating a safer environment for birds at the zoo and beyond.
