Pink is the new black!

At Zoo Mark, we love pink, especially when it represents something as important as Breast Cancer Awareness. In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we will be featuring Fanny, our Pink Flamingo, at our Wildlife Education Class this week (October 22, 2016), and Dorian, one of our rare Pink Dolphins next week (October 29, 2016). We think it's important to get the word out so everyone stays as protected as possible.

It's not just humans that get breast cancer, either. Any animal with breast tissue runs a chance of getting it. We take care to make sure none of our furry or finned mammal friends go unchecked. Part of every animal's annual health check includes blood work and physical examinations to insure that we catch anything out of the ordinary as soon as possible. We take this especially serious with our hybrid friends, since they are genetically at a higher risk for any cancer, even breast cancer.

This week at Zoo Mark, we are donating 30% of our ticket sales to the National Breast Cancer Foundation in honor of the brave mammals (because men can get it, too) who have fought the battle against breast cancer. Together, we can fight for a cure. Do it for your family; do it for your friends. Do it for the tata's!

For more information on the cause, the cure, and so much more, go to the National Breast Cancer Foundation, Inc. web page.

  1. I love that you added and incorporated breast cancer awareness and annual checkup's for mammals too and that men also get breast cancer! That is something people forget, I do also love the pink pictures of the animals!

  2. I was "tickled pink" that there is actually such a thing as a pink dolphin, they're freshwater dolphins from the Amazon River!
