Photos: Busch Gardens Celebrates Baby Boom

Visitors to Tampa’s Busch Gardens are in for a special treat over the next few weeks as zookeepers take time out to introduce a few new arrivals to the public.

The theme park has announced Keeper Talks and views of the new cheetah cubs and baby gorillas on select Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays in March and April. The baby critters were born recently at the park and have not yet been on regular display.

Keeper Talks are set for March 24-26, March 31 and April 1-2. They’ll take place at 11 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. in the Myombe Habitat where visitors can see the new gorillas. At 1:45 and 2:30 p.m., visitors can check out Edge of Africa to view the cheetah cubs.
