Interactive animal exhibits can be fun and educational. Stay safe by keeping food and animals separate!

  • Don’t eat or drink around animals.
  • Don’t share your food with animals, no matter how cute they are!
  • Don’t eat raw (unpasteurized) products.
  • Wash your hands before eating or drinking.
