ABOUT THE EVENT

Swing out to the Oklahoma City Zoo to help orangutans. Join the OKC Zoo and Bob Moore Subaru on World Orangutan Day, Friday, August 19 to learn what you can to help in protecting this amazing species and its habitat. Sumatran orangutans are listed as critically endangered in the wild. Globally, 60 percent of primate species are now threatened with extinction and 75 percent have declining populations, and they need our help. Event activities are set to take place by the Zoo’s orangutan habitat, Great EscApe from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. and are free with regular Zoo admission. Visit www.okczoo.org for additional details.
