What time of day will I see more animals?

Many of our animals are early risers and may be a bit more active in the morning depending on weather conditions. There is no way to predict when animals will be more visible. 


All of our animals have the choice to meet you when they are ready.


Wildlife may be removed from public view for a variety of reasons. (e.g. environmental conditions, health issues, and behavioral concerns.) 

Many habitats are designed for animals to be able to remove themselves from view at any time. 


No refunds or exchanges in cases of inclement weather or exhibit closure. 


Guests can to call ahead to check for any changes or closures. 575-439-4290
