This bird won’t be left out in the cold at the Prospect Park Zoo. Franklin, the resident wild turkey, made it safely through another T-Day with his feathers on, and he’s at the zoo every day to welcome visitors. Stop by any day, from 10 am to 4:30, for a visit with all of the zoo’s inhabitants.
For children 6 to 9 years-old, holiday break can be a bit dull, but at the zoo, they can learn about animals, enjoy hands-on activities, make a craft, and go on a mystery scavenger hunt at Winter Camp, on Dec. 28 and 29, from 10 am-3 pm. Snacks are provided, but children need to bring their own lunches. Pre-registration for camp is required.
Admission for the two-day camp is $125 for members and $150 for non-members. General zoo admission is $8 for adults, $6 for seniors and $5 for children ages 3 to 12. The zoo is open 10 am to 4:30 pm through April.
