Opening Oct. 12

Wild Rising is here–it's time to play, So let's wander the Garden, we'll lead the way!

Our frogs and meerkats by now you've found, More animals unleashed are all around.

Animal crossings signal to creatures ahead, They like to be pet, but not climbed on or fed.

Once you see where the arches stand tall, In your imagination, you may hear the wolf call.

Hop along through a fluffle of rabbits, Dive into an SOS about plastic habits.

Just around the bend, things aren't as they appear, Frogs form the cactus that we hold so dear.

Head to our tallest cactus–face your fears, This crocodile won't bite, he only sheds tears.

A safari of color once you've completed, Their message is one not to feel defeated.

All the creatures big, medium and small, We rely on each other–one planet for all.
