Bronx Zoo: Entry Ticket

Step into the Bronx Zoo—spread over 265 lush acres in the Bronx—and see wildlife from around the world come alive. From roaring lions on the African Plains to butterflies whispering in the garden, the Bronx Zoo blends animal encounters, conservation, and interactive fun so all ages leave with a wild smile. Whether you’re dodging tilting house façades or peering through rainforest glass, there’s always something unexpected around every path.

What You Will Experience

• African Plains & Big Cats
  Stroll past wide savannahs to see lions, zebras, and hyenas roaming in naturalistic enclosures.

• Butterfly Garden & Birds of Prey
  Enter a serene world of fluttering wings in the Butterfly Garden. Then feel the power of eagles and owls in the Birds of Prey exhibit.

• Children’s Zoo & JungleWorld
  Kids will love petting the farm animals, watching prairie dogs scurry, visiting porcupines and fennec foxes. JungleWorld transports you into a glass-sheathed tropical rainforest.

• Zoo Shuttle & Bug Carousel
  Conserve energy by hopping aboard the seasonal Zoo Shuttle. Also don’t miss the whimsical Bug Carousel—ride insects like grasshoppers, dung beetles, or ladybugs.

• Nature Trek & Tree-top Adventure
  Climb across aerial bridges, balance on wiggly beams, explore elevated tunnels, and soak views from human-sized bird nests. Nature Trek is adventure and nature play in one.

• Conservation & Education
  The Bronx Zoo is more than just a display—it’s a center of wildlife conservation. Exhibits like Congo Gorilla Forest and Madagascar! showcase endangered species, while behind-the-scenes science helps protect them.
