Halloween is one of the best times of the year for enrichment at the zoo! All the animals seem to love their pumpkins, and in different ways ... from the river otters who take their baby pumpkins on underwater play dates, to the annual Squishing of the Squash performed by the elephants (a 1,316.5 pound pumpkin named "Gourdzilla" was this year's victim).
Happy Howloween, everyone!

| Squash. Squished. |
 |
| Pumpkin mask for our masked De Brazza's monkeys. |

 |
| Happy Halloween AND Happy Birthday to our tigers! |
 |
| Black bear. Orange pumpkin. |
 |
| The pumpkin didn't stand a chance against Zuri. |

| This pumpkin is about to be polar-verized. |
But first: as much as I love these pictures, I love this video of a pumpkin-loving porcupine the most: Watch (and listen to!) Teddy the Talking Porcupine. He loooooves his pumpkin!
