Haunted Happenings

• Wander through animal habitats and collect terrifyingly tasty treats on the trick-or-treat trail.
• Learn more about our animals at keeper chats and interactive discovery stations.

Sustainable Sweets

This Halloween (and every day), choose candy made with certified sustainable palm oil. Palm oil plantations are destroying animal habitats, and palm oil is the most widely used vegetable oil globally, found in everything from snacks to soap. Check out this palm-oil friendly candy guide for sustainably sweet treats for your trick-or-treaters! Learn more about the palm oil crisis and how to shop responsibly.

Hey, Kids!

Send a letter to Tootsie Roll industries urging them to use forest-friendly palm oil in their candies. Take action for forest-friendly candy!
