While you are there, here are a few attractions you might be interested in visiting:

  • Zebra Foal.  A baby zebra was born on May 2nd, and she loves to frolic and zigzag around the rest of the herd!  Come see this energetic little cutie in the Africa section
  • Tiger Exhibit Renovations.  The Sumatran Tigers just got a new home that is now five times bigger than their old one—complete with pond, waterfall, and plenty of space to play.  This new setting allows for fabulous photo opportunities, and the Invisi-net separating you from the tigers is designed to allow cameras to focus through the netting!
  • Sea Lions.  Come hang out in the shade of the sea lions’ new pavilion to watch these playful little animals swim and romp!
