Houston Life co-host Derrick Shore is checking out a hidden gem, the greenhouse, where plants play a much bigger role than you might think. From supporting animal diets to creating natural habitats, you’ll learn why this space is so important and get details on the zoo’s first-ever public plant sale happening next month.
Then, co-host Tessa Barrera went behind the scenes with the zoo’s veterinary team to see how cutting-edge technology is changing the way animals are cared for. From diagnosing injuries to catching illnesses early, these tools are helping experts get a clearer picture and provide better care than ever before.
Plus, Houston Life reporter Melanie Camp is showing us how we can step into a world of imagination as we explore the all-new Mythical Realms exhibit. It’s a magical experience filled with larger-than-life creatures designed to spark curiosity for visitors of all ages.
