Some people are already planning for Valentine’s Day.

If you’re looking for a way to show your love with your ‘wild’ side, The Calgary Zoo’s annual fundraiser might be right up your alley.

It’s a very intimate candlelight dinner in the Enmax Conservatory, followed by a hilarious talk about animal romance.

The Zoo’s Trish Exton-Parder tells 660News, this year the theme is “50 Shades of Zoo.”

“Our education folks and our animal care folks and volunteers are all taking a bit of an interesting theme on the famous book that’s out in the community right now, for a little bit of fun.”

You can call the Zoo at (403) 232-9300 or go to www.calgaryzoo.com to book online.
