The Zoo anticipates high attendance, especially on warm, sunny days. For safety and guest experience, the Zoo may temporarily limit admission once parking reaches capacity. This will not only help with crowd management but will also provide a more relaxed and enjoyable visit for guests and their loved ones. Consider arriving early or carpooling, and check our site / social pages often for more updates!

Our ambassador animals play an important role at the Zoo connecting guests to their species and other animals in the wild. Although not in a traditional habitat, you can frequently see them in animal encounters in Kidzone and other locations around the Zoo. They also play a leading role in education programs, birthday parties, and special events. Check out one of our education opportunities for a chance to meet and get up close with one of our ambassadors.
