Virtual ZooRun 2021
LET'S RACE
The 51st annual ZooRun will take place in a brand new virtual format in 2021. You can race virtually anywhere.
Did you know your participation directly supports your favorite Tulsa Zoo animals? In 2019, you helped us raise over $35,000 towards new exhibits!
We are currently raising funds for our upcoming African Wilds: Carnivores Complex. This will create new homes for animals you know and love (like our lions and African painted dogs) while bringing new species to Tulsa. You can learn more about this project here.
Special thanks to our Hospitality Sponsor: T-Mobile
