Help Us Name the Bat-Eared Fox Kits!

Now through July 22, the Fort Wayne Zoo is inviting the community to help us name the five bat-eared fox kits that were born in May 2026. Born to first-time parents Ripley and Mkhuseli, there are four boys and one female kit who are all in need of the perfect name.
