Add-On Options

Animal Junction will transform any event into a "Zoo for the Day". Many of our exotic and Amazing Animals are large, very tame and accustomed to human interaction.They provide an ideal introduction to everyone, even the squeamish! Our fully insured and licensed traveling programs offer "edu-tainment" to birthday parties, schools, social events, camps, libraries, scouts and more!  In short, we bring the zoo to you.

Consider Animal Junction as an adventurous alternative to field trips - saving money and time by eliminating the need for chaperons, transportation and travel.  We also offer completely customized programs to fit your needs and style from corporate events to classrooms with specific educational objectives.  Our presentations are always age-appropriate, ranging from age 4 through adult with most shows lasting 45-60 minutes

Audiences generally begin their exciting adventure with a few safety rules and then onto becoming "Pet Detectives" while guessing animals' identities from unique sounds coming out of covered carriers. Zoo keepers in Safari or Pet Detective uniforms continue to entertain while introducing each animal one by one,  sharing fun facts about the animal (origin, diet, survival) and pointing out some of the animal's wildly cool and weird traits. We also focus the importance of protecting and preserving exotic animals.  Any guest of honor receives the proper "star" treatment and his or her own personal safari hat and Animal Junction pin. We provide animal tattoos and Animal Junction Pet Detective badge stickers to younger audience members at smaller private events.
