This
spring, we asked kids to complete the picture in our Tiger Tails drawing contest
to get us pumped for phase two of the Bamboo
Forest Reserve. Thanks to all of the amazing young artists who entered the
contest through our MyZoo magazine kids section.
We
received over 130 entries, some from as far away as Germany. It was a tough
decision, but we had a lot of help – 25 staff from across the zoo assisted in
judging. We considered detail, use of color, perspective, inspiration and
creativity. We were all thrilled with your imagination and talent!
Below are the grand prize champs and
their artwork. Drumroll please, and the prizes are…
