Wed., April 29 (Stone Zoo) and Thurs., April 30 (Franklin Park Zoo): Guests will have an opportunity to observe routine emergency preparedness drills. First responders will join us for this exercise, and guests may see emergency vehicles and personnel during the drill. As part of the drill, guests may be asked to move to certain areas within the Zoo for a brief period of time (not to exceed 10 minutes). We'll do our best to have minimal impact on your experience, and the zoo will remain open the entire time. We're dedicated to safety and appreciate your participation. Practice drills are an important part of our preparedness training. If you have questions about what to expect, contact us at 617-989-2000 or info@zoonewengland.org. Thank you for your interest and understanding!
