Beat the humdrum winter routine and come out to Stone Zoo during February school vacation week. Watch wolves, coyote and others have fun in the cold, and learn about neat animal adaptations to the winter temperatures. Just like you, animals can get bored if they’re cooped up all winter, so we have to come up with novel enrichment activities to keep them stimulated and happy!

Come and see all the creative things we do for our critters, and learn how we keep them active and engaged throughout the winter using enrichment techniques.
