Have a Zoorific Evening at Scovill Zoo this month to raise funds for the reptile exhibit and more. The annual event is part of Scovill Zoo's capital budget-building efforts and the zoo will be open to adults looking for a unique date night and to learn about all the good things happening there.

Heather Perdeu, Director of Scovill Zoo says attendees can expect exclusive animal encounters, dinner, drinks, and an auction.

The alligator exhibit specifically is looking to be upgraded as the cold winter months bring challenges for the gators while trying to maintain a natural environment.
