Zoo officials reserve the right to determine what constitutes a “prop” and may prohibit items that are not included in this list. Anyone found in violation of this policy will be asked to leave the prop outside Zoo grounds, and if they refuse to comply with this policy, the visitor may be prohibited from attending the event, and no monetary refund will be issued.
