Special Event
Walk in the Wild

The 2012 Walk in the Wild welcomed more than 1, 600 participants in its fourth year. Participants strutted, prowled and ran their way through a 5K course that took full advantage of all the beauty the Phoenix Zoo has to offer. As guests completed the route, they enjoyed fresh fruit compliments of the Arizona Farm Bureau and cheese sticks from the Arizona Milk Producers, along with their goodie bags. Guests were encouraged to stay at the Zoo for a day of family fun including a viewing opportunity of the Zoo’s Sumatran tiger, Hadiah, who received piñatas as part of BE (Behavioral Enrichment).
The Fourth Annual Walk in the Wild brought in more than $35, 000 in gross revenue. A special thank you to all of our sponsors! Arizona Lottery – Silver Sponsor; MOTO ACTV – Supporting Sponsor; Arizona Farm Bureau, Arizona Milk Producers, GO Concessions and Coke – In-Kind Sponsors.
All proceeds from Walk in the Wild will help to build the Zoo’s new Sumatran tiger exhibit. For more information on how you can contribute to the new Sumatran tiger exhibit, click here.
