Grab a bite with a bird, or wolf down breakfast

Zoo animals eat breakfast in the morning too! Join them before the zoo opens for a light continental breakfast and a behind-the-scenes peak at animal enrichment. Child-focused and caregiver-directed free play activities and crafts will stir your child’s imagination and inspire learning.

The program kicks off 9-10 a.m. Feb. 3 and Feb. 4 with a Bird Banquet. Enjoy breakfast with the zoo’s cockatoos and macaws. Learn about flight and feathers through imaginative play and enjoy a visit around the zoo afterwards.

From 9 to 10 a.m. March 9 and March 10, take part in Hungry Like a Wolf. Educational crafts and activities focusing on wolf behavior, and a “people breakfast” with the zoo’s early risers. Then visit the wolves and watch them devour their carnivore meals!

Breakfast with the Animals is for children ages 3 to 6, with a caregiver.

Advance registration is required and space is limited. Cost is $9 for adults and $4 for child members; and $19 for adults and $9 for children who are not members.
