    Animal ambassadors welcome you for a stroll into Entry Village and Gibbon Islands for festive cocktails and a sampling of exotic flavors from Nashville area restaurants. Then head into the Zoo’s new Jungle Terrace Pavilion for a seated dinner, presented by Nashville Zoo’s own catering service Taste of the Wild and featuring four untamed courses that promise to take you on a culinary safari.

    Dinner includes your passport to enjoy a hilarious behind-the-scenes look at the love lives of our animal friends, courtesy of Miami Metrozoo’s international sensation Ron Magill. Ron Magill has been in the zoological field for over 30 years and does regular segments on CNN, The Late Show with David Letterman, The Today Show, Good Morning America and Sabado Gigante. He is also a renowned wildlife photographer and travels the world with his unique presentation “Sex and the Animals.”

    The evening concludes with a few spins on the Wild Animal Carousel while you satisfy your sweet tooth with desserts and coffee from some more of Nashville’s local flavors. Don’t miss this unique night out – all benefiting your Zoo!
