Themed WildNights provide for NEW fun!  Choose one of the following below or try the original nocturnal theme. Have you cooked on an open campfire in the middle of…the Zoo?  Well, now you can.  We have expanded our dinner options to include a cookout option.  You can now choose between the original pizza and salad option or try our new cookout option that includes hot dogs and s’mores cooked over a campfire.  In case of inclement weather, we will do the pizza option.

Themes:
African- The evening has all the fun of an African safari but much closer to home.  We will visit our African friends including the giraffes, gorillas, hippos and lions.
Primates- Join us for a fun-filled night learning all about monkeys and apes.  We will do entertaining activities to highlight their special adaptations.
Endangered Species – This evening will help explain why these special animals are disappearing and what you can do to help them.
Adaptations – Have you ever wondered what it would be like without thumbs or if you could blend into your surroundings?  We will talk about these and other amazing adaptations in this exciting evening.
Nocturnal - The original WildNight with primates, hippos, penguins, birds, reptiles, and giraffes - learn what these animals do while the rest of the Zoo sleeps.
