It's About Caring


Aquariums
The new Kids' Zone is a bright, colorful environment
designed for the way children learn: through touch, ex-
ploration and movement. Here, children can explore the
Red Wolves
Magical Movement area where they can climb and move
in ways that mimic how animals move. The kids can then
spy on live animals that move in very cool ways, such as
Birds of Prey
wallabies, stingrays and millipedes.

Tide Pool In the Contact Junction area, kids can meet live animals
&Penguins
up-close as they discover how we care for critters at the
zoo. They may have the opportunity to feed or groom
Small Animals the resident goats and sheep or pet a guinea pig. Chil-
dren ages 3-8 will especially enjoy Kids' Zone.
