Zoo Miami increases security after days of bomb threats force evacuation of guests, staff
Zoo Miami is set to reopen on Monday after days of bomb threats, and when visitors arrive, they will notice some enhanced security measures in place as a result.
Investigators are still working to determine who is responsible for making the calls, and the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office stresses that the threats have been hoaxes.
Despite that, the bomb threats have forced Zoo Miami officials to evacuate visitors and shut down the zoo for investigations over the past three days.
Zoo Miami officials said that when the zoo reopens on Monday, there will be more security, police and K9s on site.
No one has been hurt by the threats, but it has disrupted the zoo over the weekend.
The series of events began on Friday when an anonymous call reporting a bomb threat was received. The most recent threat was on Sunday.
After each threat, the zoo has had to evacuate all guests and staff, and deputies would sweep the facility to investigate then give an all clear.
The sheriff’s office is still investigating the threats, and anyone with information about them is being urged to call police.

Novak Djokovic withdraws from the Miami Open because of a right shoulder injury
Novak Djokovic has pulled out of the Miami Open with a right shoulder injury, tournament officials announced Sunday.
Djokovic is a six-time winner of the Miami event and an eight-time finalist. Both those marks are tied with Andre Agassi for all-time tournament men’s singles records.
Djokovic, ranked No. 3 in the world, lost to Jakub Menšík in last year’s Miami final. Djokovic won the tournament in 2007, 2011, 2012, 2014, 2015 and 2016, plus made another trip to the final in 2009.
The men’s draw for the tournament will be released Monday.
Djokovic, a 24-time Grand Slam tournament winner, played last week at Indian Wells and reached the fourth round in singles and the second round of doubles. He reached the final at the Australian Open earlier this year, losing to Carlos Alcaraz.
