As we head into the Fall, many zoos are preparing to close down for the season.

Heather Perdue with the Scovill Zoo in Decatur explains the last day of the regular season is October 14th. The final Free Admission Day will take place on Thursday, October 10th.

Lizzie Van Ert with the Scovill Zoo notes the Zoo Buddies Class takes place on the second Tuesday of every month, and that program continues year round. Zoo Buddies is for 3 to 5-year-olds to learn about different animal species. 

You do have to register for the Zoo Buddies Class. You can do so at Decatur-parks.org/scovill-zoo/. Keep it to Regional Radio to hear more about Scovill Zoo's upcoming Fall events.
