Awww, the Wildlife Conservation Society has released the first photos of the new Bronx Zoo sea lion pup! Born to mom Clarice on June 23rd, you can see the little one (and the other sea lions) get fed at 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. We have yet to hear back about the name or sex of this new pup, what do you think (s)he should be called?

Bronx Zoo sucks, they keep those poor elephants in such small areas and the monkeys look so sad. human race is the sickest specie. We caged them to view them only. You learn nothing since they aren't even in their own habitat. horrible.
An African native once kept in a Bronx zoo, Ota Benga committed suicide.

"Bronx Zoo sucks" is a terrible name. What about Slappy or Squawker?

I think they should name it Felix The Cat.

These animals are unable to live by their own now.

It's sad the zoo is surrounded by condos and the animals are too afraid to come out when you go there to see them.

You need to go on a not-busy day, like Christmas. Then they come out. Seriously, that is the best day to go.

How about Bernie?

Too soon?
