About
Requires an Admission Ticket
Every animal encounter is different! Your family or small group will meet one-on-one with one of our expert zookeepers for a 20-30 minute animal encounter where you will meet 4 - 5 of our Animal Ambassadors. The exact nature of each encounter depends on species, individual, and weather, among other factors. We will do our best to meet requests for specific kinds of animals, but working with live animals is different every day and we appreciate your flexibility when your zookeeper is selecting the best animal for your encounter. No matter which of our amazing animal ambassadors you are able to meet, we guarantee you will have a unique and memorable encounter experience!
