HATTIESBURG, Miss. (WDAM) - The Hattiesburg Zoo is welcoming Spring by hosting an annual celebration of European art and culture from the 14th-17th centuries.
The zoo is holding its 4th Renaissance Festival.
It’s featuring all sorts of displays, crafting, animal encounters and lots of live-action role players.
“We have little butter-making stations, we have an apothecary, where people can learn about plants and how they’re used for remedies, archery, we also have live-action role-players here,” said Jeremy Cumpton, director of education, conservation and wildlife at the Hattiesburg Zoo.

Heather Higginbotham Koch, lab technician for Singing River Health System, noticed something strange in the parking lot while on her way to work a shift Dec. 1. A defiant weed sticking out of the concrete had a single ornament on it. She said she thought it was cute and wanted to share it.
