Bobcat Display Ground Breaking
The Washington Park Zoo hosted a groundbreaking ceremony on Wednesday, May 17, 2006 in preparation for the new bobcat exhibit.
Mayor Charles Oberlie presented as well as representatives from the Zoo Society and the Parks & Recreation Department.
The bobcat exhibit is expected to be completed by the end of July 2006. The Zoo Society has raised and donated $105,000 to the Michigan City Parks & Recreation Department for use in the new bobcat exhibit.
Washington Park Zoo hours are from 10am-5pm 7 days a week. The entire Zoo entrance area is undergoing extensive utility, road and curb construction. For the safety of our Zoo Patrons, we ask for patience during the Lakeshore Drive Project, as well as new exhibit construction inside the Zoo.
