Adoptions

Did you know you can adopt a Lehigh Valley Zoo animal?

Visit www.shoplvzoo.com/adopt to view animals up for symbolic adoption.

All proceeds from the adopt purchases go directly toward animal education and conservation efforts at Lehigh Valley Zoo.

Every symbolic adoption comes with a photo of your adopted animal, a fact sheet about the animal, either an adult or two children zoo tickets, a stuffed animal and a personalized certificate of the adoption.

Current animals include the mongoose lemur, leopard tortoise, Mexican gray wolf, red kangaroo, Linnaeus’ sloth, Masai giraffe, American bison and African penguin.

Garden party

How does a tiny seed turn into a beautiful sunflower? This is just one question local author Tassia Schreiner explores in her newest book “Sunny: A Story of Life and Love,” which will be read by the author herself at this very special conservation story-time event on Aug. 28.

The event goes from 11 a.m. to noon at Preston’s Place inside the zoo. Your ticket also covers your zoo admission for the day.

Tickets are limited for this private event. Parents are encouraged to purchase standard zoo admission so that Sunny Garden Party tickets can be made available for our younger guests, recommended for ages 4-12.

To order tickets, visit www.lvzoo.org/sunnygardenparty.
