Animal Encounters

Get in with the Animals! Have a personal encounter with some of the animals from the Good Zoo!  Oglebay's Good Zoo will be offering new "Animal Encounter" programs beginning this May that will allow zoo guests to get into animal exhibits with the keepers to help feed and train some of the zoo’s animals!  You must bring your cameras for this incredible experience!

Up to one session per animal will be available per day from May 1 - August 31.  A portion of the proceeds from the "Animal Encounters" program will support Oglebay's Good Zoo's conservation programs.
