The Jihad Shibley Rocky Mountain Aviary is presently closed.
Why the closure? It’s nesting season for our owls! Our great grey owls, especially the younger members of our parliament, can become protective of their nests and territory during this time.
To support their natural behaviors and prioritize safety for both our birds and visitors, we’re taking a proactive step by temporarily closing the habitat. Thank you for your understanding.
The ENMAX Conservatory will be closing at 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday, May 15th to facilitate setup for an event. Thank you for your understanding.
Penguin Plunge (indoor) will be closed from February 20 through to May 17, 2024, while we complete upgrades to the building’s mechanical system to ensure it is in tip-top shape for the four species that call it home. Penguins will be viewable outdoors only (weather permitting). Thank you for your understanding.
On-site Program
Get ready to solve the mystery of the fossil discovery. In this program students will act like paleontologists and use fossil evidence to determine the length, speed of travel, diet, and species of the dinosaur. Students will reflect on the question “How does learning about the past inform us about what Alberta is like today?” through storytelling and hands-on investigation.
