The Greensboro Science Center's Zoo Trek program allows you to even feed certain animals and teaches you more than what you get on the regular visits.

GREENSBORO, N.C. — It's a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The Zoo Trek program is like no other at the Greensboro Science Center.

It allows you to get an up-close look at some of the zoo animals alongside the animal keepers!
