Cheetahs at the Milwaukee County Zoo are getting into the Halloween spirit with pumpkin treats and icy ‘BOO’ treats as they prepare for the zoo’s annual Boo at the Zoo event later this October. The zoo has been a local attraction for years, offering themed events throughout the year, and Halloween is one of the most anticipated. This year’s celebration will include special activities for visitors, featuring costumed staff, festive decorations, and interactive exhibits. The animals, including the cheetahs, are being given treats that reflect the holiday theme to make the event more engaging for both the animals and the guests.
The Boo at the Zoo event is a popular family-friendly attraction that has drawn thousands of visitors each year. The zoo’s management has emphasized the importance of creating a fun and educational experience for children and adults alike. With the Halloween event taking place in October, the zoo is encouraging visitors to come dressed in their best costumes for a chance to win prizes. While the focus is on entertainment, the zoo also uses the occasion to raise awareness about conservation efforts and the importance of protecting wildlife. The cheetahs, as part of the zoo’s collection, are being prepared for the event with special treats, ensuring they remain comfortable and entertained during the festivities.
