On March 6, 2025, the GO See Foundation hosted a memorable group outing to Zoo to You/Conservation Ambassadors. The event was a massive success, providing participants with a unique opportunity for close, supervised, and interactive experiences with a diverse range of exotic animals.

The day was filled with intimate, sensory-rich encounters. Attendees had the chance to feed and interact with animals such as Tulie the camel, Edward Scissorhands the three-toed sloth, Roswell the armadillo, and Bob the young alligator. Members were able to hang out with several large capybara, hold a black-and-white ruffed lemur, and see Maya, a small spider monkey.

But the highlight of the day might have been meeting, holding and coddling Yindi, a baby kangaroo – see all the images below.

The GO See Foundation is thrilled that the trip delivered a special and worthwhile experience for its members, reinforcing the foundation’s mission to enable visually-impaired individuals to “GO SEE the world.”
