🍂 A Whimsical Snapshot
As fall’s golden hour filters through towering pines, visitors trickle in, pumpkins in tow, and excited chatter fills the air. Somewhere nearby, a costumed bunny marches alongside a curious goat; elsewhere, a feathery parade of birds flutters by, drawn by a soft chorus of giggles. Little witches and wizards march in line, their capes catching leaves that drift down, and children crack open pinatas shaped like bats while the scent of autumn — crisp air, earth, and pumpkin — dances all around. When the goodie bags are handed out, laughter echoes through the trails, and even the animals seem to pause, as if joining in the merriment.
Whether you’re there for the costumes, the critters, or the candy, Boo at the Zoo promises a hearty dose of Halloween magic — in the wild.
