You at the Zoo

Much like our Zoo to You program, this 30 minute on-site presentation provides students the opportunity to meet two live animals while exploring a conservation-based theme.  What is the difference between a frog and a toad??  Are we predators, or are we prey?  How does our behavior in Kansas affect animals in Africa?  These are the types of questions this program will answer.  These classes are a great addition to school field trips. Prices are $40 for the first program and $25 for each additional program.

Personal Guided Tour

These hour-long tours will be guided by an experience zoo staff member.  During the tour, three stops will be made at Apes, Rhinos and Giraffes – where the tour guide will speak at length about conservation, animal facts and their personal histories.  Maximum group size for each tour is 35. Prices are $50 for the first tour and $40 for each additional tour.
