Larger, Complex Outdoor Living Space

Because we’re moving the main road that currently runs through the center of the Zoo, we’re taking that space to enlarge the giraffe yard. This yard upgrade will feature a new feeding tower, new spaces for giraffe, and will even allow the herd to explore hills for the first time.

A New South America Exhibit

With lots of new animals and new species, this exhibit space will be teaming with wildlife giving our guests a truly tropical experience. Our new South America exhibit will feature more than 2500 square feet of immersive rainforest experience. Featuring the same clear ETFE roof as the giraffe building, you’ll be able to see and hear animals from every direction in this new exhibit.

Whether you’re traversing a rope bridge, gazing into the shallow water from the treetop overlook, or looking up into the tree canopy above, you will be immersed in a natural space filled with animals. We are excited to introduce you to free-roaming monkeys, turtles, fish, crabs, rays, and so much more. Slated to open in 2026, we can’t wait to share the new South America exhibit with you!

And so much more!

This Project is BIG!

And we’d love for you to be a part of it. As one of only a handful of AZA-accredited zoos that operates without tax support, we are able to continue to build and improve exhibits because of friends like you.
