Party for the Planet
Join us for Party for the Planet* at Zoo Miami on April 21st from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Guests can discover various ways to support the environment through conservation-themed activities designed for the whole family! Meet eco-minded community partners and enjoy giveaways, animal meet & greets, Zoo Squad appearances, music, games, and more.
Guests can come in FREE of charge when they turn in a cellphone** as part of our ECO-CELL phone recycling program. These donated cell phones will help gorillas by hopefully reducing the need for coltan – a mineral extracted in the deep forests of Congo in Central Africa, home to the world’s endangered lowland gorillas. Fueled by the worldwide cell phone boom, Congo's out-of-control coltan mining business has in recent years led to a dramatic reduction of animal habitat and the rampant slaughter of great apes for the illegal bush-meat trade.
