TL/DR –
Moja, a male Hamadryas baboon at the Phoenix Zoo, has celebrated his 24th birthday. The zoo’s Nutrition Services made ice treats and “cookies” out of biscuits, oatmeal and banana for him, and his keepers decorated his habitat. The Horticulture team also brought him flowers and sugar cane, which he particularly enjoyed.
