ZooBOOO!,Maryland Zoo, Baltimore, MD, US.

Set on 160 acres in Druid Hill Park, the Maryland Zoo in Baltimore is the nations third-oldest zoo. Chartered by the state legislature in 1876, the zoo has more than 1,500 birds, mammals, amphibians and reptiles, representing nearly 200 species. Animals are displayed in natural settings replicating their native habitats.

Because it is located in North Baltimore, the zoo often is overshadowed by the citys Inner Harbor attractions. But anyone who skips the zoo is making a big mistake. A zoo outing makes for a family-friendly, affordable afternoon, and the facility houses more impressive animals than you may think. Polar bears, lions, big cats, elephants, giraffes all call the Maryland Zoo in Baltimore home.

Now in its 26th year, Zoo Boo features trick-or-treating, a costume contest, games, crafts, pumpkin painting, and of course, all the zoos regular attractions. Held in the Waterfowl Lake Pavilion, regular admission prices apply.

The Maryland Zoo in Baltimore is hosting the 26th annual spooky Halloween tradition, ZooBOOO. This years ZooBOOO will take place on October 23rd, 24th and 25th from 10:00AM - 4:00PM.
