Grace Cook and Mary McDermott Cook conspire at Zoo to Do 2015.

Discover the Savanna Desert and the Wilds of Africa at the Dallas Zoo for Zoo To Do 2016, themed “Silver Safari” in honor of the event’s 25th year.

Attendees will partake in bidding on unique items, such as a U.S. Swaziland Elephant Tour or a chance for “glamping” at the Dallas Zoo, during the silent and live auctions. They will also be treated to food from premiere Dallas chefs and live music from Party Machine.

Proceeds from the event allows the Dallas Zoo, a nonprofit organization, to continue serving as an outstanding center of education, wildlife conservation, and entertainment.
