Join us TOMORROW to celebrate Unicorn Day the Abilene Zoo way! 🦄
Enjoy a unicorn-themed scavenger hunt where you can find the unicorns of our zoo. Our unicorns are some of our rare or endangered animals! Pick up your scavenger hunt sheet at the zoo entrance when you arrive. Use the clues on your sheet to find our unicorns - each unicorn will have a tag on its enclosure telling you which clue it matches up with.
We will also have a unicorn headband craft station from 1 pm - 3 pm in the zoo!
Wear your favorite unicorn outfit and we will see YOU tomorrow! Have a magical day ✨ ...
