Animal Ark invites you to watch our predators open their treat-filled piñatas on Saturday, May 3^rd, 10:15 a.m. – 2:30 p.m.

Stalking, pouncing and attacking piñatas:  enjoy the sight of our predators having a grand time discovering treats inside their piñatas!  This enrichment activity ensures that the Animal Ark’s predators will have fun as we celebrate Cinco de Mayo weekend on Saturday May 3.  We invite you to join us and to bring your cameras.  Your attendance helps: it provides us with funds to care for these animals.  Our animal keepers and educational guides will share stories and answer any questions you have about our wild residents. 

Care to help us make the piñatas?  We’d love to see you on Sunday, April 27^th at the Ark booth at the Earth Day Celebration in Idlewild Park to help create piñatas we’ll use on May 3^rd.
