Buddy’s Bedtime

Bedtime at the Zoo

Bedtime at the zoo is quite an event for all our animals but some more so than others. Putting a rhino to bed is a bit more complicated than some might think as it means calling him in from the play yard, separating him from his favorite toy (his mud wallow), his friends (zebras and water buffalo) and reducing his space a bit for health and security reasons but for our rhino, it also means “DINNER TIME” and a warm barn during the winter.

This tour starts at 5pm and although scheduled for 30-45 minutes, this tour lasts as long as our rhino dictates, and we’re just fine with that. You’re invited to help. Learn about their diets, our bedtime protocols, our training and our state of the art rhino facilities while also learning a vital conservation message that could help save this very threatened/endangered species. Most important you’ll learn how you can help.

We are open 7 days a week – including most holidays  except: We are closed on Easter, Thanksgiving and Christmas Day. Children must be 4 years of age or older to attend this tour. For the health and comfort of the animals, strollers are not allowed on this tour.
