Become a Zoo keeper for a day
Date: 19.09.2011.
Who do you think takes care of parrots, bears, monkeys, snakes and other animals at Zagreb Zoo? Imagine that your job is to feed them, clean their living spaces, and make toys for them. Zagreb Zoo, together with Tportal.hr and Continental film, can make it happen! Participate in a programme of Zagreb Zoo and become a zoo keeper for a day!
Inspired by a new movie 'Zookeeper' that comes to our theatres on the 8th of September, Continental film and Zagreb Zoo decided to award six readers and show them what it takes to care for inhabitants of our biggest zoo. Only you need to do is send a text with an answer to the question “What animal would I be and why?” and personal information (name, last name, address, phone number and your year of birth) to email address tportal@tportal.hr. Six most original and the most fun readers will get a chance to see what it means to be a zoo keeper for a day and another five readers will get a second prize (a t-shirt from the film).
Please note that readers age 15 and older can participate in the competition. Minors can participate only with the written consent form their parents.
The duration of the competition is from 8th to 17th September, and the names of the winners will be published on Monday, 19th of September.
Animals at Franklin Zoo love their good natured keeper Griffin Keyes (Kevin James). One day Griffin realizes that he feels better surrounded by girls than animals and decides to leave the zoo and search for a more glamurous job to help him find a girlfriend. Animals decide to brake their vow and disclose their biggest secret – The gift of speech! To prevent Griffin from leaving, animals decide to teach him the rules of courtship – the animal way! Rosario Dawson and Leslie Bibb act in the film Zookeeper, and voice acting for some of the characters is done by Cher, Nick Nolte, Adam Sandler and Sylvester Stallone.
