About the Zoo
As you walk through the Bronx Zoo, be prepared to spend anywhere from 2-4 hours exploring the various exhibits and learning about the animals that call them home. With over 40 different exhibits, there is something for visitors of all ages to enjoy, from the Sea Lion Pool to the Tiger Mountain exhibit and the Butterfly Patio.
One of the most unique experiences you'll have at the Bronx Zoo is the opportunity to see the rarest big cat in the world -- the Amur leopard, in the Indian rhino exhibit. Other highlights include the Himalayan Highlands exhibit with the majestic snow leopards, and the Madagascar exhibit with endangered lemurs.
In addition to the many exhibits, the Bronx Zoo also offers daily animal feedings and 30-minute guided tours which are perfect for those looking to learn more about the animals and their habitats. For those traveling with children, there's the Children's Zoo which features a petting zoo and interactive exhibits that teach children about the animals they're interacting with.
The Bronx Zoo is a historic attraction, opening its gates for the first time in 1899 with just 22 exhibits. Today, it's considered one of the greatest zoos in the world, not just for its size and variety of animals but also for its commitment to animal welfare and conservation efforts.
