Tropical Treasures: Fall Wildlife Encounter Presented by Binder Park Z October 18, 2009

Come and discover one of the Earth's most fascinating ecosystems tropical rainforests! Did you know rainforests occupy only two percent of the entire Earth's surface, yet they support one-half of the world's wildlife? Join Angie Allen from Battle Creek's Binder Park Zoo as she shares the importance of the rainforests. Discover the unique layers in rainforests and watch or participate as she uses kids from the audience to build a rainforest. Live tropical animals will be on exhibit, which typically include a sloth, parrot, kinkajou, and other exciting surprises!
