The Phoenix Zoo is featuring activities for visitors inspired by Dora’s adventures, including: a scavenger hunt through the Zoo’s Forest of Uco, a photo-op with cutouts of Dora, Boots and Swiper and a screening of an episode of Dora in the Doornbos Amphitheater at 9:30 a.m. on Saturdays and Sundays. All Dora activities are included with general admission into the Zoo.
