Cicadas become animal snacks at Brookfield Zoo Chicago. • The creator of the video posted this on social media. The Northern Illinois Brood of cicadas have begun to emerge in the Chicagoland area and the animals at Brookfield Zoo Chicago are experiencing the insects for the first time in 17 years. The cicadas coming to the surface in the outdoor habitats may become tasty snacks for some of the animals, including African painted dogs, sloth bears, and brown bears. Animal care staff are also sharing the protein-rich and low-in-fat insects with many of the indoor animals. • At 3News, we’re here to share the stories that you say matter most to you.
