Ivohiboro : The Lost Forest Screening at The Little Theater

This documentary is a reminder that there is still so much to discover!

The film follows an expedition into Madagascar’s Ivohiboro Forest, a small, previously unexplored forest rich with biodiversity. Led by primatologist and professor Patricia Wright, recipient of our 2022 Conservation Warrior award, the team worked to document an ecosystem few had studied before. Seneca Park Zoo’s Brenna De Angelis and Tom Snyder were among the scientists contributing to this research and will be on the panel with Dr.Wright after the film!

Holiday Magic Cart Tours

Get into the holiday spirit with a holiday magic cart tour at the Zoo!

The most magical ride of the season starts right here at the Zoo!

 Bring your own warm beverage and snuggle under a blanket while enjoying a 90-minute cart tour through the Zoo, led by our Zoo Naturalists. There are a total of 10 seats available per time slot (2 carts with 5 seats each). If there are not enough spaces for your party remaining, you will need to select another date or time. If we have an uneven split amongst the carts, groups may need to be split between 2 carts. Carts ride through the zoo together, so you will not be split for the entirety of the tour.
