If you're a nursing mom headed to the zoo, there's a new place to stop. The Hattiesburg Zoo announced Capybara Cove, a nursing station just off Prairie Dog Plaza with two private, air-conditioned rooms.
- Inside Capybara Cove: baby changing station and diaper disposal
- Also provided: sanitizing surface wipes and room for a stroller
- Camp fire pit: still central, still a gathering place
Camp Capybara also traded its six traditional tents for permanent wooden cabins around a central fire pit, WDAM reports. That means the camp can host as many as 36 overnight campers.
