ABOUT THE ExHIBIT

 


Temporary Exhibit Closures


All walk-through aviaries such as the Wetlands, Conservation Aviary and Savanna Aviary are temporarily closed to protect birds most at risk from exposure to Avian Influenza. The Tropical Rain Forest Dome will remain open at this time as there are currently no birds in the exhibit.

 

The vast grasslands of East Africa support huge varieties of animals, from predators such as lions, to large herbivores including giraffe and zebra. Our African Savanna exhibit showcases these remarkable species that exist on these shrinking wild grasslands.
