What a BIIIIIIIIIIG Yawn! with Theresa, Katie, and Ann of ZooAmerica
Today, the Safari heads to Hershey, PA, not for chocolate (ok, there was some chocolate) but for a visit to ZooAmerica, an AZA-accredited facility located right at Hershey Park. We sit down with three staff members at the zoo to talk about wolves, otters, bears, conservation efforts, how being a part of the Hershey organization makes a difference, their relationship with Ocean Connections, and so much more!
