LINCOLN PARK — If you have ever wanted to sleep among the apes, now's your chance.

The Lincoln Park Zoo is offering up three special nights of sleepovers with the animals.

During all three nights — Nov. 14, Feb. 21 and March 28 — guests will sleep inside the Regenstein Center for African Apes.

The night includes a chance to explore the nightlife of the zoo, including visiting animals in the Regenstein Small Mammal-Reptile House.

Zoo experts will be at the event to wind the night down with stories and games.

The event includes dinner and a continental breakfast.

Guests have a choice to attend the night's events and head home to sleep in their own beds if they chose not to sleep over.

The evening encounter program from 6-10 p.m. is $42 ($35 for zoo members) and the full overnight is $70 ($60 for members).

A full information pamphlet is available on the zoo's website.
