Spring Break Camp Huge Success! COMING SOON…SUMMER CAMP!



Spring is definitely here in Colorado! Birds are singing, flowers are blooming, and we are only getting small snow storms instead of the BIG ones we saw through the winter…except those two we had over Spring Break! Regardless, Spring Break at Cheyenne Mountain Zoo was a huge success. We had a great turn-out for our spring camp this year! Two programs were offered during the week – Predators for ages 6-10 and Jr. Zookeeper for ages 10-15. Over the week, our little “predators” learned about different hunters from big cats to birds of prey. We also made plaster tracks to see how the paw prints differ for various predators. The Jr. Zookeepers were busy learning how to take care of aquariums, making diets (diets are meals with healthy nutrients and vitamins for the animals) in the Loft and talking to almost all of the zookeepers in the Zoo!
