More than 800 guests enjoyed delectable delights from fine South Florida establishments, wild animal encounters, cocktails courtesy of Bacardí, live entertainment, and more at Feast with the Beasts (FWTB) presented by Assurant at Zoo Miami. Together the party-goers, dressed in chic cocktail attire, raised $200,000 for the Zoo’s education and conservation programs.
