Colorado Springs’ zoo turns 100 with big changes

Cheyenne Mountain Zoo is gearing up for its 100th birthday in 2026, and it’s not just about cake and candles. Locals can look forward to a brand-new Giraffe Center, more ways to connect with animals, and a fresh face leading the zoo as longtime CEO Bob Chastain retires. The zoo’s independence (no tax dollars here!) and deep roots in Colorado Springs make this milestone extra special. Anyone else excited to see how the new giraffe habitat will change the guest experience? Share your favorite zoo memories or what you hope to see next! #Travel #ColoradoSprings #CMZoo
