Have you ever held Rosie, our beloved tarantula ambassador? For 30 years, Rosie has been a crucial part of our mission, showing the world that spiders often get a bad rap, and are quite fascinating (and even cute)! She has been held by more than three million people and loves to pose for pictures, making every encounter a memorable one! Have a great photo or story about holding Rosie or another experience you want to share about visiting our zoo? Celebrate our 30th anniversary and submit them to us by visiting clicking the link in our bio. #BP30 #RosieTheTarantula #IHeldRosie #30thAnniversary #ButterflyPavilion #CultureForAll
