Program Setup
We look forward to scheduling an event with you. In order to present a great program we ask you please keep the following in mind:
- Zoo animals MUST NOT be near or mixed with non-Zoo animals.
- There must be a staging area around the animals where the public is NOT PERMITTED. This area must be cool and well ventilated.
- Our animals require complete privacy while they are in their crates. Whether in or out of their crates disruptive behavior & excessive noise is unacceptable in their area. This includes (but not limited to) machinery, loud music, and crowd conduct.
- Appropriate shade and shelter must be available. Animals cannot be in direct sunlight.
- Outdoor programs will be presented only if weather conditions permit, an indoor location should be set aside in case of inclement weather.
- The Presenter will need a parking space close to the presentation site.
- Presenters have the authority to cancel or stop a program if they feel the animals' welfare is jeopardized.
- Group behavior is not the responsibility of the Presenter.
