Even though winter weather weather has arrived and the zoo is closed to the public, all of the animals receive the same treatment as in the summer. Along with lots of custom feed, consisting mainly of barley and oats, the animals, also receive daily doses of fresh apples and special pellet treats every few days.

They are kept in the same barn together together and funds are saved on heating since the camels provide the warmth for both animals. There are also some animals animals who. are able to stand the cold and therefore are left outside throughout the year. Animals such as the buffalo and the ostrich can handle these cold winters. To keep the animals in warm pens, easily accessi ble to; their feeders, the Bowmanville Zoo generally moves them to larger barns closer to the house. This saves the owners time and money when making the feeding rounds each day. The hiove also allows them to cut down on their staff during the slow winter season. Throughout the summer months, there are usually aibout 15 members on staff; however, in the winter only about five or six are needed. While working throughout throughout the winter, staff members members feed the animals and help the mothers care for their young. Although many of the various animals kept at the zoo bring their youngsters youngsters into the world in spring or fall, several winter arrivals are expected. expected.
