You are invited to join us for the grand re-opening of the Tundra Buggy, located outside of the Zoo’s polar bear exhibit on Tuesday, March 3rd at 10am. The vehicle was originally used by Polar Bears International to research polar bears in the Churchill Wildlife Management Area and has been a staple for visitors since the Zoo’s award-winning Arctic Passage opened in 2015.
The Tundra Buggy has been closed over the winter to update the interpretive signage and redesign the interior. The Zoo worked closely with the Madison Children’s Museum and Polar Bears International to create a design that will allow children to explore ways that people work to protect wild polar bears.
Guests attending the ribbon cutting ceremony will have the opportunity to explore the Tundra Buggy, learn more about the polar bear conservation work Henry Vilas Zoo participates in, enjoy specials in the Glacier Grille, and see the Zoo’s resident polar bears, Nora, Siku, and Berit, enjoy special enrichment. We hope to see you there!
