Shows

Keeper Talk featuring an armadilloWe know that children learn best when they learn firsthand—whether it’s through a personalized demonstration or the opportunity to touch or interact with a friendly animal. We take great pride in the quality of experiences we provide our visitors everyday.

Back by popular demand, we are once again offering our Keeper Talks. Get the inside scoop on different fascinating animal species at the Zoo from the people who know them best—their keepers. Make sure to check our signage at the Front Gate to find that day’s location for the Keeper Talks.

Daily shows are held at 11 a.m., 1:30 p.m. and 3 p.m. (during the normal Zoo season)

Please note: Keeper Talks are subject to change or be cancelled due to weather and staffing needs.
