In the heat of the summer, survival can be challenging for many animals as they deal with increased temperatures and protected resources such as water and territory. Find out how animals stay cool and see if they have what it takes to be a survivor.
Surviving Summer Zoo Camp will be highly educational while still being tons of fun! Each of the 5 days of Camp will include interactive learning experiences, hands-on activities, special zoo tours, up-close animal encounters and will be distinctly different for each age group.
Offering more opportunities for our guests than ever before, Zoo Camp has age appropriate learning for children between 3-13 years old (see age listings). We have 1/2 day camps for our younger learners and full day camps for our older learners. For our full day camps, lunches are also available for purchase for the first time.
  • Zoo Camp fees for 1/2 day camps are $99 for Members and $125 for Non-Members. Fees for full day camps are $180 for Members and $225 for Non-Members.
