What's Happening

Junior Zookeeper Program

Do you have a middle schooler or teen that has a passion for animals?

This unique educational experience offers the chance to learn what it takes to become a zookeeper! In fact, many of the staff members here at Miller Park Zoo got their start in the JZK program. Students will gain leadership and teamwork skills, learn how a zoo functions and learn how to care for the many animals that reside at Miller Park Zoo.

To enroll, a parent or guardian must attend one of the upcoming informational meetings. Meetings will be held

March 4, 5 & 6 from 6:30 PM – 7:30 PM at the Miller Park Pavilion.
