We are super excited to launch a brand new Close Encounter at Wellington Zoo –
where you can come and meet and interact with our cheeky Meerkat mob!
To
celebrate, we are auctioning off the first chance to do the encounter, as well
as the opportunity for you and your family to name some of our newest additions
to the Meerkat family! Our Trade Me auction is listed
here.
The proceeds of the auction will go towards
helping us look after our Meerkats along with all the other amazing animals at
Wellington Zoo. As part of our commitment to New Zealand conservation, last year
we provided free veterinary care for over 1,000 native animals at Wellington
Zoo. This auction helps us continue to provide free care for native wildlife.
The encounter is valued at $90 per person with the first encounter
available to general visitors on Saturday 18 August. Encounters will be bookable
from Wednesday 15 August.
