A Wild Celebration
Go wild for Earth Week at the Bronx Zoo.
It's a fun and educational celebration of wildlife and wild places.
Roar with their Earth Day Animal Ambassadors, the Siberian Tigers during their daily enrichment sessions. Then, paint an Earth Day mural, listen to the adventures of Captain Cocoa in the Wildlife Theatre and "go green" for the Recycled Animal Kingdom sculpture exhibit. Plus, meet cool characters from Fisher-Price's Planet Heroes™.
