Watermelon Wednesdays

Watermelon — it’s one of the most delicious seasonal summer treats! Visit us on Watermelon Wednesdays in July where Reid Park Zoo’s animals will receive fresh watermelon enrichment! We’ll be giving out watermelons for many of our mammals, birds, and reptiles to enjoy. Our animals love to break open and dig into these sweet treats! These festivities are free with Zoo admission.
