Popcorn Park Zoo

No....we're not talking about your FAVORITE Radio Station 105.7 The HAWK. No we're not talking about the Monmouth Hawks either. We're talking about the actual birds, and it's actually pretty serious stuff.

Rocky, the pet bobcat notorious for escaping from his Stafford Township home, has been captured after getting loose for at least the third time this year, according to NBC10.com.

Today is a sad day on the Jersey Shore for those who have gone to the Popcorn Park Zoo in Forked River. Today we mourn the passing of Princess the Camel. Princess died of old age at 27.

You might see the term #TBT on social media. (Instagram, Facebook) It stands for Throwback Thursday. People dig up old pictures from back in the day, and post them. We decided to do the same thing here on the Hawk website. Check back on Thursday's to see pics from back in the day

I never forgot Popcorn Park and years later I visited myself. (It's easy to find, located on Humane Way at Lacey
