Teens Have a Wild Summer at Binder Park Zoo!

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to work at the Zoo? Join the “Zoo Teens” and experience the Zoo first hand. Zoo Teens is a program for those 13-17 years of age that would like the unique experience of working in a variety of Zoo related fields. How would you like to work with a Zookeeper cleaning, preparing diets, and feeding the animals? Perhaps you would enjoy talking to Zoo guests about horns, antlers, snake sheds and other bio-facts. You can spend the night at the Zoo and assist Education staff with overnight programs. Would you like to make a contribution to a research or enrichment project that will benefit the Zoo’s animal collection? Other conservation projects may be available through out the summer.
