  • School Groups / Field Trips

    School Groups/ Field Trips have temporarily been suspended.
    In an effort to keep guests, staff and the animals who live at the Zoo safe, we are complying with CDC recommendations and limiting the number of guests allowed in the Zoo per day. When we are able to increase our capacities, it is our hope to reinstate School Groups/ Field Trips.

  • Convenience Rentals

    *Convenience Rentals are currently unavailable.
