Spring is a wonderful time to visit the Zoo with our multiple gardens in full bloom, so make plans to get outside with the family! The Zoo plans fun and educational special events and seasonal programs for the entire family. Enjoy Mother’s Day weekend by visiting animals and then having lunch together in the Peacock Pavilion.

Mask Requirements: Because our animals remain susceptible to Covid-19 transmission, we require masks in our indoor animal habitats: the Research Station and the Rainforest Building. Elsewhere in the Zoo, indoors or out, we respect masking as a personal choice. Everyone over the age of two, except for those with a medical exemption, should have a mask to enter the animal buildings.
