This is a great time to visit if you enjoy the hustle and bustle of youngsters exploring their Zoo.

You should allow yourself two hours to see most of the Zoo. Even better, plan to visit often, and really explore one part of the Zoo on each visit.

Other Tips for a Great Visit
Remember that all of the Zoo's animals are wild. Please don't feed any of the animals or chase any of the naturally roaming animals such as peacocks, geese, squirrels, and other creatures you'll see at the zoo.
Learn more about fun, educational progams for non-school Groups, and school field trip opportunities.
Keep an eye out for docents, who are dressed in tan pants and white or red shirts. They often have "touch stations" and other things to look at and are always happy to share interesting information about the animals. Consider becoming a volunteer and share your own interest with others!
Bring binoculars so you can see animals REALLY close up.
For the safety of animals and guests, bicycles, skateboards, rollerblades, and skates are not allowed inside the zoo. Outside food, straws, drink cup lids, and cans are also restricted.
