ZooLights Scavenger Hunt

Through Sunday, January 4, you can participate in a free Scavenger Hunt at ZooLights Presented by Invesco QQQ and ComEd! Wander through the zoo, find the locations of hidden ornaments, and receive a prize!

All four hidden ornaments feature an illustration of the newest member of the African penguin colony at Robert and Mayari Pritzker Penguin Cove! Once you find their locations (take a photo or write down some details about the spot where you found them), you’ll report to the Member Center and collect your prize.

Hidden ornaments can be discovered in three locations: Pepper Family Wildlife Center, Regenstein Small Mammal-Reptile House, and Regenstein African Journey.

Is a building closed during your visit? Collect all the ornament locations you can and head to the Member Center with what you have!
