Chimps celebrate Halloween at the San Francisco Zoo
OCTOBER 22, 2009
As Halloween approaches it's not just humans getting in on the ghoulish fun: Somewhere in Huntington Beach at the San Francisco Zoo, more exotic animals such as chimpanzees are celebrating with pumpkins and chimp-safe Halloween-themed treats. (No Mallomars for these guys!)
Other California zoos are celebrating Halloween in their own way -- the San Diego Zoo's Wild Animal Park is holding a "Pumpkins in the Park" event on weekends through Nov. 1, and the Santa Barbara Zoo has its Wild West-themed "Boo at the Zoo" event Oct. 23-25. (What, Halloween isn't a theme in itself anymore?) Here in L.A., the L.A. Zoo holds its own "Boo at the Zoo" on Oct. 24-25 and Oct. 31-Nov. 1.
