The 2016 election is right around the corner, and we’re not just talking about November! In honor of Presidents’ Day and the 2016 Presidential election, Franklin Park Zoo will be hosting its own Zoo animal election for “President” of the Zoo. Throughout the week, families can learn about each of the candidates’ platforms, cast a vote for their favorite, and discover what sets each animal candidate apart from the others!
Voting will take place throughout the week in the Tropical Forest, where children will have the opportunity to make campaign signs for their favorite candidate. The winner will be announced on Saturday, February 20 and an inauguration party will follow in the Tropical Forest.
