There’s more than meets the eye at the Milwaukee County Zoo, and for one day only, animal sponsors will get the chance to visit areas of the Zoo where guests are rarely allowed! As the Zoological Society’s way of saying thanks to the amazing people who support the Zoo’s animals, animal sponsors will get a behind-the-scenes look at the Zoo, with guided tours led by knowledgeable Zoo Pride volunteers.
