🎨 Crafts & Games – 9:00 AM–3:30 PM throughout the Zoo
🛍️ Vulture Swag for a Cause – T-shirts, stickers, paintings made by our turkey vultures, personally signed Unhuggables books, and more! 10% of proceeds will benefit VulPro, an organization dedicated to saving Africa’s vultures through rescue, rehabilitation, research, and education.
🎟️ Special Giveaway – Adopt Lucy during the month of September and you’ll be entered to win a Conservation Conversation with our celebrity ambassador herself! 🖤
🌍 How can you help vultures right here in Dayton? One simple way is by saying no to rodent poisons and baits. Predators and scavengers like vultures, owls, and hawks can eat poisoned rodents—which may be fatal to them.
