Today's Groupon: for $10, you get an entry into a sweepstakes to name the newborn giraffe at
, as well as one-day admission to the zoo (a $20.99 value for ages 12 and up; $15.99 for kids 3–11, $16.99 for seniors and college students; free for kids younger than 2). Though a Groupon code is required to enter the contest, entering the contest is not required for zoo admission.
Born on July 22, 2011, Zoo Atlanta's female giraffe calf brings the promise of a life of long-necked distinction to the zoo's already diverse animal population. The random-draw sweepstakes, set to take place on August 17, will grant one lucky winner the honor of deciding what will be forever etched onto the license plate of the giraffe's custom vertical stretch limo. The namer and four runner-ups will also be privy to a behind-the-scenes encounter in which human and giraffe can view each other close up and swap notes on lion-grooming techniques.
In preparation for the drawing, zoo-goers can ponder prospective names while taking a skip past the Sumatran tiger and American alligator exhibits. Other animal-based pastimes include holding a staring contest with a wise otter or attempting to hypnotize a stoic giant panda. In addition to animal-based interactions, the zoo offers a wide variety of shows, shops, and activities to keep guests constantly engaged during their walk through wildlife.
Though Zoo Atlanta sometimes features a discounted price online, this Groupon still offers the best deal available.
