BELVIDERE, Ill.—Summerfield Zoo, 3088 Flora Road, Belvidere, Ill., has announced its opening weekends will be Saturdays and Sundays, May 1-2 and May 8-9.

The public is invited to see all of the spring babies—reindeer, wallabies, prairie dogs and more.

Summerfield Zoo is open 10 a.m.-5 p.m., Saturdays, May 1 and 8, and 11 a.m.-4 p.m., Sundays, May 2 and 9. Admission is $5 per person and all proceeds go to the care of all the animals.

Margaret Tyler, volunteer at Summerfield Zoo, said: “Mountain lions, monkeys, camels, zebras and more! There is always something new going on at Summerfield Zoo, and with all the new babies at this time of year, now is a great time to come out and see them for yourself. It’s also a great chance to see what you have been missing if you haven’t been here.”

Enjoy animal presentations, hayrides, a petting zoo, have lunch at the lunch stand, and shop for gifts at the gift shop and new specialty vendors.
