Item Description
Get up close and personal with our amazing western lowland gorillas! This one of a kind experience will allow you to observe a behavioral training session administered by one of our knowledgeable zookeepers here at the Franklin Park Zoo. Learn about how administering these procedures provide enrichment and ease stress when facilitating veterinary procedures such as close-up visual exams and hand injections.
The winner will be granted complimentary admission for 6 to explore Franklin Park Zoo's Tropical Forest with a Zoo representative.
