Zoo Miami Keeps Elephants Cool in Heat | Miami News
Description
When the heat hits South Florida, Zoo Miami goes all out to keep Nellie the Asian elephant—and all the animals—cool and comfortable. Fire Rescue even joined in for a refreshing hose-down, but it’s not just showbiz: elephants need shade, water, mud (yes, mud!), and ice blocks to stay safe. The zoo’s dedicated welfare team monitors every creature’s needs, tweaking their environment to mimic the wild—even when temps soar. Visitors? Don’t forget to hydrate, seek shade, and head inside by 5 PM.
