Anteater returns to Lee Richardson Zoo

A giant anteater is back at Lee Richardson Zoo in Garden City, Kansas. A young female arrived from the Fresno Chaffee Zoo in Fresno, California, earlier this month. 3-year-old “Aji,” or “Chili” as she’s known, has been in routine quarantine behind the scenes as she adjusts to her new surroundings. She was recently introduced to a holding area adjacent to the habitat and will debut in the larger area in the Zoo’s South American Pampas this week. Chili will join three greater rheas, 2 of whom arrived just this past fall.
