Young professionals and the young-at-heart gathered at San Francisco Zoo & Gardens on Saturday, October 14th for Fur Ball 2023: Into the Wild, presented by TPG. The event, which returned after a hiatus of nearly four years due to the pandemic, was expertly chaired by Zoological Society board members John Flynn and Marie-Claude Nadeau, under the auspices of “Zoo II,” a group of younger Zoo enthusiasts. Guests donned festive “bring out your wild side cocktail attire,” and danced the night away, while enjoying animal encounters, nighttime carousel riders, an open bar, and the hottest food trucks around. Proceeds from Fur Ball benefit the Zoo’s wildlife conservation programs.
