What do you call an undercover tarantula? A spy-der! There will be five “spy-ders” hidden around the zoo waiting to be found. Come up with a fun pose, take a picture with one of the “spy-ders” and submit it to “the web”. The public will vote on the best picture and the winner will get a spooky fun prize package!
