A virtual happy hour with the most interesting Zoo Atlanta professionals!
Introducing your newest online obsession – sorry, Netflix – brought to you with a twist and a stir … or a shake if you prefer. Join us for monthly programs bringing you a featured cocktail you can make at home, with a talk from a well-seasoned – or over-seasoned – Zoo professional who has a story or two to tell! Warning: You might learn something.
August 27, 6 p.m. to 7 p.m.
Just like you need to be prepared for anything when working with wild animals, you never know what you’re going to get when Dr. Sam Rivera is around. Join us for an hour of true animal stories as our head veterinarian regales us with tales of some of the oddest things he’s ever seen. Find out what a day in the life of a Zoo vet is really like – it’s not as glamorous as it sounds, but it’s one of the world’s most dynamic and rewarding jobs!
