Snore N Roar at the zoo

Submitted Photos An evening of activities and then camping out to spend the night in Minot’s Roosevelt Park Zoo took place Saturday night during the Family Snore N Roar event. Activities included families making treats for the animals. “They had to measure out and mix different ingredients. One example of treats were carrot biscuits that can be given to our zebras, giraffes and kangaroos,” said Nicole Barnhart, Education, Conservation & Outreach coordinator at the zoo. Families also made a lightning bug craft. They turned water bottles into lightning bugs by adding tissue paper to the bottle and glow sticks to illuminate them. These came in handy on the night train ride and sleeping in the tents. Giraffe feeding also was among the activities.
