What you need to know
Early Closure Alert: June 7
Early Closure, Zoo Grounds: June 7 | Zoo grounds will be closing early on Friday, June 7th, 2024, to accommodate setup for Wild After Hours: Zoo Brew (18+). Last entry will be at 3 p.m. and grounds will begin to be cleared at 4 p.m. Thank you for your understanding.
Temporary Closure: Jihad Shibley Rocky Mountain Aviary
The Jihad Shibley Rocky Mountain Aviary is presently closed.
Why the closure? It’s nesting season for our owls! Our great grey owls, especially the younger members of our parliament, can become protective of their nests and territory during this time.
To support their natural behaviors and prioritize safety for both our birds and visitors, we’re taking a proactive step by temporarily closing the habitat. Thank you for your understanding.
Animal Viewing Impact, African Savannah Yard: Beginning of June to December 31
Hartmann’s mountain zebras and ostriches will be off-view from the beginning of June until the end of the year while we complete exciting upgrades in the African Savannah Yard, including the construction of a new Savannah Barn for the animals. Our giraffe tower will continue to be viewable throughout the project. Thank you for your understanding.
