**Thank you to everyone who made Saturday a success. We had a really fun first day of this event. Please feel free to share your favorite pics in the comments. Our Sunday tickets are sold out as well and we are looking forward to another great day
**Saturday tickets sold out in less than 24 hours so we will be adding a few time slots on Sunday. Please note that this is the only weekend we are able to offer this program for the year so no additional days will be added. Get your tickets now as we expect Sunday to sell out as well.
We will be offering a special winter interaction program on Saturday January 17th from 11am-4pm. Since we are not able to do our large winter event this year due to construction and repair projects in the zoo we are offering this event instead while the zoo is closed.
You will be able to pet, hold and take pictures with 8 different species. These include our skunks, wallaby, red footed tortoise, tarantula, hissing cockroach, blue tongue skink, alligator, and one of our snakes. Our Amazon parrot will also be happy to talk with you but will be the only one we don’t get to pet or hold during this event.
The interactions will take place in our party room for this event. Tickets are $25 per person for a 30 minute time slot and must be purchased in advance. There will be 10 tickets sold for each time slot so you may be placed in a group with others unless you purchase all tickets for that time. Tickets are non refundable and your time will begin and end as scheduled so please arrive on time. Text Shannon 734-968-5595 to purchase your ticket(s) today.h
