Animal Ambassador Meet-n-Greet Experiences

Did you know the Charles Paddock Zoo offers up-close animal encounters with our education animal ambassadors? Our animals help us share important information about wild places and help make a connection to conservation efforts happening across the globe. Here at our zoo, each Meet-n-Greet is 25-30 minutes long. Price range is $75, depending on the size of your group. Admission into the zoo is separate. Please email us at zooeducation@atascadero.org for more information and to schedule your Meet-n-Greet with us today!

Each program is tailored to the age of the audience, and programs can be custom designed to fit the curriculum. Email zooeducation@atascadero.org for schedule availability and pricing.
