Things to Do
-
Butterfly Garden
Butterfly Garden: Encounter over a dozen species of butterflies fluttering through the greenhouse and meadow of this seasonal exhibit. It’s a place to witness the fascinating life-cycle of these brilliantly colored insects, and learn about the birds and fish that share their exhibit.
-
Children's Zoo
This seasonal attraction is a place where kids can have up-close encounters with prairie dogs, North American porcupine, and fennec foxes, and also pet and feed the gentle animals of the farmyard.
-
Congo Gorilla Forest
Gorillas are among our closest relatives in the wild and that’s pretty clear watching ours. From cautious to playful to nurturing, each has a unique personality. It's always a thrill to see them interact.
-
JungleWorld
Grooming each other atop a maze of branches in our Asian jungle, the ebony langurs defy expectations. Though most of this species is colored black, many of ours are orange, echoing a group on an island in Indonesia.
-
Madagascar!
There are about 97 lemur species native to the island of Madagascar, among them Coquerel’s Sifaka. Ours are often active, using their strong hind legs to leap from limb to limb and rock to vine.
-
Tiger Mountain
Tiger Mountain is full of things for our big cats—and visitors—to explore. Get nose-to-nose with our stars in stripes and discover how we protect tigers through our work here at the zoo and in the wild.
