Description: The Mill Mountain Zoo presents Breakfast with the Animals "Ruminate with the Raptorss" on Saturday, October 17th.

How would you like to have the keen eyesight of a bird of prey? Well, there is a lot of great information to discover about raptors. Visit for breakfast, and then hear some revealing information about some of the zoo’s resident birds of prey. After the keeper chat, children will get to do a 3-dimensional Model Magic sculpture of their favorite raptor and an activity sheet inspired by the zoo’s birds of prey.

Join us at the Mill Mountain Zoo every 3rd Saturday, May - October, 2015 for a unique opportunity to have breakfast with the animals. Guests will be treated to a light breakfast buffet and the chance to meet one of the zoo’s education outreach animals.

This will be immediately followed by a special chat with zookeepers as they amaze our guests with more fun and educational facts about our animal residents. This intimate experience will allow zoo visitors to learn more about various animals’ diets, behavior and personalities.

Following the chat, there will be a child-focused and parent-assisted project and activity sheet that will be designed to further foster excitement and knowledge about the featured animals.

The event is registration based! Please register by the Wednesday preceding each program.
