Zoo Encounters
Zoo Encounters are 10-15 minute talks by zoo staff that get visitors "involved" in learning and give everyone time to ask lots of questions. They are fun, informative and interactive. Join us for one or stay for all of them, you won't be sorry! Zoo Encounters are finished for the season.
 Zoo Chats
Look for the yellow and red Zoo Chat signs throughout the zoo for free, fun and informative animal presentations by the people who know them best- Zookeepers! Any programs may be cancelled due to weather or animal-related problems without notice. Zoo Chats are finished for the season.
