The exhibit, "Flowers in Flight: The Butterfly Experience,” is home to about 250 butterflies of various species. All are native to Oklahoma.

The exhibit opening was delayed a few hours Friday because of the arrival of the zoo’s new rhino, Niki. The rhino exhibit is near the butterfly garden.

"Flowers in Flight” is open from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Sundays to Fridays and 9 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. Saturdays. For more information, call 424-3344.
