Megan's Story

Kansas City Zoo staff navigated uncharted territory recently when diagnosing one of our seven elephants with high blood pressure, or hypertension. Megan, a 40-year-old African elephant, is receiving groundbreaking treatment to control her symptoms so her vibrant personality can continue to shine and she can remain with her herd. We're proud to provide the best possible care for all of the animals in our care, from the biggest to the smallest!
