Jihad Shibley Rocky Mountain Aviary: The Jihad Shibley Rocky Mountain Aviary is open from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. daily as we gradually move to regular opening hours after the hatching of our three great grey owlets. Thank you for your understanding.
PETRONAS Gateway to Asia Malayan Tapir Viewing: ‘Sempurna’ and her female calf ‘Nyawa’ have daily access to either the main indoor habitat or the outdoor habitat from 9:30 a.m.–1:30 p.m. They’ll also have access to their behind-the-scenes space and may choose to spend time there, so viewing isn’t always guaranteed. Thank you for your understanding.
Due to significant construction activities in and around Exploration Asia, the zoo’s West Gate will remain closed for the 2025 season and is expected to remain closed until at least 2028/2029. This necessary step supports the safe movement of visitors while we undertake exciting improvements to animal habitats and visitor experiences.
Operations
To create some exciting new habitats and spaces in the Canadian Wilds, we are undergoing a massive construction project which will temporarily shift pathways and move some animals offsite until the construction is completed.
As of April 12, 2023, the North Path of the Canadian Wilds is closed. This means that muskox, wood bison, bighorn sheep, woodland caribou, whooping crane, North American river otter, Rocky Mountain goats, and the residents of the Jihad Shibley Rocky Mountain Aviary are currently not viewable.
We’re working hard to minimize impacts while continuing to provide the best possible experience for both our visitors and the animals we love and care for. We can’t wait to welcome you back to this space when the Canadian Wilds fully reopens later this Fall!
