Earth Day comes around once a year and it’s our chance to put our planet front and center, to reflect on how it’s doing today and how we’d like it to be tomorrow. This year, come join us at Safari West for a very special celebration of this annual event.

We’re inviting you to a grand celebration of our planet and its amazing and diverse environments. In front of the Amani Oasis aviary, we’ll have special explorations of the three prime elements of earth, air, and water. You’ll be able to get up close and personal with conservation concepts unique to these elements and take part in hands-on experiments exploring those worlds.

Alongside these displays, our dedicated Junior Keepers will be presenting a recycled jungle and we’ll have some partner organizations hanging out with us as well; the California State Parks, Sonoma Land Trust, Petaluma Wildlife Museum, and Sonoma Snow Leopard Conservancy to name a few!

As with all our special events, your reservation grants you full access to our lower grounds where cheetahs, lemurs, monkeys, and flamingos frolic and play. And if that’s not enough, we’ll also have our famous Nairobi minibus out running safari treks. These treks are forty-five minutes loops through our gazelle pasture, out to the rhino paddocks and to the lands of Watusi beyond!

For the most dedicated, we encourage you to enjoy a morning with us at our Earth Day Extravaganza and then head to downtown Santa Rosa to take part in another amazing Earth Day event: the Global March for Science. Visit www.marchforscience.com for details on the march.

This year, make Earth Day something special with us at Safari West.
