Saturday, October 26 & Sunday, October 27, 10:00 am – 3:00 pm – Halloween Zoo Howl: Franklin Park Zoo

by

Join us for this spooktacular celebration, where wild creatures and Halloween fun come together, at the Franklin Park Zoo on October 26 & 27. Wander through our animal habitats and collect terrifyingly tasty treats on our trick-or-treat trail, and get creative at our arts and craft stations. Be sure to bring your own treat bags. Keep an eye out—some of our animals might be getting into the spirit too! And don’t forget to show off your Halloween style in our kids’ costume contest!

SUSTAINABLE SWEETS

This Halloween (and every day) look for candy made with certified sustainable palm oil. Palm oil plantations are wiping out animal habitats, and from snacks to soap, palm oil is the most widely consumed vegetable oil on the planet. Check out Cheyenne Mountain Zoo’s palm-oil friendly candy guide(opens as a PDF) for some sustainably sweet treats for your tricksters.
