Zoo Miami will reopen Sunday with "enhanced security measures" after closing for the second day in a row on Saturday due to a bomb threat. The zoo posted an update to guests on social media saying that they are coordinating with local law enforcement. "Guests may notice increased security presence, including K-9 units," the post on X read, "The safety of our guests, staff, and animals remains our top priority." According to the Miami-Dade Sheriff's Office, this is the second swatting call that was made to the zoo on both Friday and Saturday. The zoo remained closed for the rest of Friday afternoon, but reopened Saturday morning until they had to close again after this second bomb threat. Another threat was also reported in December. https://lnkd.in/g9uJY_3E
