An all-ages event.

One event, Boo at the Zoo, is geared towards the younger ghosts and goblins. All ages are welcome to this less-scary Billings Halloween tradition on Saturday, October 26th from 10 am to 4 pm. Wear your costumes, but remember: masks are not permitted on anyone age 18 and over.

Regular zoo admission applies. Adults are $12, Seniors are $10, Kids 3 - 15 are $9 and toddlers age 2 and under are free. There is a $2 discount for military members with a valid ID. Zoo members are FREE and can get in early, beginning at 9:30 am.

Fall is a great time to visit the Zoo.

We stopped by ZooMontana for the St. V's NICU grad party last weekend and got to enjoy the grounds in all of its fall splendor. The colors are popping and many of the animals are more active this time of year with the cooler temperatures.
