Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is 2 to 8 October 2026. The zoo has planned a week of walks and competitions in that window, among them a tree walk, a birds walk, a butterfly and dragonfly walk, a spider and insect walk, a reptile, amphibian and molluscs walk, a keeper's talk with enclosure enrichment, and contests in clay modelling, poster making, debate, essay writing, drawing, rangoli and quiz, besides online photography and quiz activities. Options A, C and D shift the window by a day or more and do not match the announcement. Two further details are worth carrying with the dates: no fee is charged for any walk, activity or competition, and free entry is given to participants along with their teachers, accompanying staff and parents, as well as to children up to twelve years of age.
