our beautiful wildlife!
Seating is limited, so get your tickets while they last!

February is a month dedicated to celebrating and protecting the animal kingdom, hosting several observances that highlight both beloved and controversial species. This includes Bat Appreciation Month, which seeks to dispel myths and highlight the vital role of bats as pollinators and pest controllers. We also have Owl Awareness Month for their mystery, beauty and the vital roles they too play for our environment.

March 1 is WORLD WILDLIFE DAY

& KINDNESS TO ANIMALS DAY

A day recognized globally as World Wildlife Day, is a day of global celebration of all the world's wild animals and plants. This date was specifically chosen because it encourages people to treat all living things with respect and compassion. From wildlife conservation and endangered species to the treatment of farm animals and domestic pets—and to advocate for better protection laws and humane treatment worldwide.
