My coworkers and I celebrated Kasi's birthday this past Sunday, Feb. 19. What a day it was!

Both he and Mtani had great fun getting into all of the “gifts” and ripping up the banners!

Busch Gardens has a great new FREE tool to assist teachers, specifically in teaching the concept of change over time to learning audiences of all ages.

This year’s Long Term Investigation Project, entitled: Kasi & Mtani: Forever Friends, focuses on the growth and development of Kasi and Mtani, our cheetah cub and his puppy pal.

Only six months old and arguably the most famous animal at Busch Gardens Tampa, Kasi the cheetah cub already has quite a following.

Hi, my name is Anna Chaney. I am an animal keeper for Busch Gardens and I take care of Kasi every day as my job.

Kasi Won!

We are thrilled to announce that Kasi is the winner of Budget Travel.com's Poll for Cutest Zoo Baby. Thank you very much to all our fans and friends who voted for our adorable, four-month old baby cheetah. We agree, this zoo baby is about as cute as you can get!

Kasi's up for "Cutest Zoo Baby" and he Needs Your Vote to Win!

You first fell in love with him on our blog...and really, how could you not? He is probably one of the cutest babies there ever was.
