Coexist with Wildlife Day Saturday, August 31, 2024
The River Parkway Trust is honored to partner on events with the Fresno Chaffee Zoo as they introduce 24 California species to protect, through their Coexist with Wildlife Campaign! By working together, we can ensure that our unique California landscape can thrive for generations to come and prevent more wildlife from following the same path as our state symbol.

There will be two sets of hands-on activities taking place on Saturday, August 31st, followed by a celebration for all event participants. Learn more about the Coexist with Wildlife Campaign here!
