Face coverings are required for Zoo entry and throughout the Zoo.
Please take the time to review our reimagined guest experience and protocols before buying tickets to the North Carolina Zoo. (Spanish)
Due to COVID-19, all public animal feeding times and keeper talks will be temporarily suspended.
Take your Zoo day to the next level and plan to attend a keeper encounter where you can see a range of activities from animal feedings to training sessions. You may need to check the feeding times for some animals at their habitats the day of your visit. (Times subject to change.)
