TICKETS STILL AVAILABLE!
Join us for a unique evening at the Toronto Zoo where you will raise your glass in support of the critically endangered rhino.
Tickets
to this special night, only $70 each*, will include appetizers, wine
tastings, a silent auction, a special Zoomobile tour to our Indian and
White Rhino Exhibits as well as a Meet The Keeper Experience. We will
also be holding a live auction where one lucky person will get the
chance to have a one-on-one close encounter with the rhinos that
evening! Proceeds from the event will support The Lewa Wildlife
Conservancy, located in Kenya, which protects many different species
including 73 black rhinos and 61 white rhinos.
This engaging and educational evening will provide participants with a unique opportunity to learn the nuances of wine flavours with four different wines, as well as learning how you can help save and protect rhinos. Fortessa Canada is the proud glassware provider for the Raise Your Glass For Rhinos event. Four Schott Zwiesel glasses, which are lead free Tritan crystal glassware stems, will be featured during the event. You will be able to take the glassware from the event home with you, courtesy of Fortessa Canada. The host, Michael Pinkus, will explain how the shape of the glass can enhance the taste of the wine. It's the perfect evening to spend with friends, family or colleagues all while supporting rhino conservation.

NEW addition to the Australasia Pavilion
What’s the size of a mouse, can travel twenty meters in a single bound, and eats as much as it weighs every day?
The answer is now on exhibit in the zoo's Australasia Pavilion: feathertail gliders! These pygmy marsupials have superb gliding abilities thanks to parachute-like flaps of skin between their legs. They're great climbers and fast runners, too, so you'll have to look closely to see the twelve gliders in their new exhibit!
