Bring your babies to see our babies during Zoo Babies, presented by Coldwell Banker West Shell, only at the Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden during May.  Six-foot-tall pink and blue storks statues displayed throughout the Zoo will lead visitors to all of the cutest little baby faces, including a bongo, bonobo, white-handed gibbon, sand kittens, miniature cows, Garnett's galagos, and many more.  The 24th annual Zoo Babies celebration also offers an exciting line up of award-winning children's entertainers.  Don't miss Dora & Diego, Curious George and Barney performing on select weekends throughout the month.
