Pardon Our Progress!

You may notice things look a little different when you arrive. We’re busy building new and exciting exhibits, which means portions of the entry plaza are under construction. While some areas may appear blocked off, the Zoo is fully open, and there’s still plenty to see and do once you’re inside!

Pathway Updates:

Great Apes: Access is available through the entrance next to the orangutans. You can still see all of the great ape habitats—including orangutans, chimpanzees, and gorillas—before returning the way you came.

The Overlook Path: This walkway, between Penguin Pointe and Cheetah Outpost, is currently closed. While a portion of the path is temporarily inaccessible, guests can still view the cheetahs and maned wolves from the Cheetah Outpost viewing decks. Cheetah Outpost remains open but cannot be accessed from this pathway—guests will need to enter from the opposite side near Big Cats.

Lemurs: The Lemurs have been temporarily relocated to the Colobus Monkey Habitat while their exhibit is updated. They are not sharing space with the Colobus Monkeys but may be visible there, especially in the afternoons.

We appreciate your patience and support as we work to improve your Zoo experience!
