Dear Denver Zoo Supporters The role of zoos in the global conservation effort intensifies with each passing year as animals face growing pressure in their natural habitats, and experience an alarming increase in those classified as vulnerable, threatened and endangered. Zoos, particularly those accredited by the Association of Zoos & Aquariums (AZA), are called upon to help save and protect species, both within their gates and beyond. Denver Zoo has answered that call. Since 1896, we have established ourselves as a leader in the protection of wildlife, dedicating staff and funding to more than 600 conservation projects in 62 countries on six continents. -

The Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden’s Education Department offers a unique look at our zoo—the zoo at night. We offer three sequential overnight programs designed to build upon students’ understanding of the natural world. Within these programs, we strive to combine learning with curiosity, passion with dedication, and advocacy with perspective. By sharing our knowledge of, and excitement about, environmental education, we hope to create quality experiences that foster a sense of wonder, share knowledge, and advocate active involvement with wildlife and wild places. Overnight experiences offer a deeper and more profound look at what a zoo really is. The children involved have time to process what they experience, while encountering firsthand the wonderful relationships people can have with wild animals and wild places. The program offers three special adventures: Animal Adaptations, Wolf Woods, and Sleep with the Manatees, including several specialty programs. Activities range from a guided tour of zoo buildings and grounds (including a peek behind-the-scenes), to educational games, animal demonstrations, late night hikes, and presentations of bio-facts. -
