Here at the Zoo, we’re all about being good stewards of
the environment. That’s why Earth Day is such a big deal
around here. Celebrate Mother Earth and learn how to "go
green" through educational displays and activities.
Thanks to Keep Toledo/Lucas County Beautiful, Lucas County Solid Waste,
Toledo Zoo Green Team, Lott Industries, Allied Waste, Aluminum
Cans for Burned Children, and Goodwill Industries for helping
us to once again be able to collect your recyclable items!
