We had a great kickoff to our "Backyard Biologists" Summer Camp today!

Our campers started off their day with a lesson on what it means to be a Backyard Biologist. A Keeper Chat, a visit to our Discovery Center, where our reptiles live, a stop at our North American Black Bears, and a hello to our Galapagos Tortoises were all a part of the morning.

We do have space in our 9-12 year old camps, click on the link below to learn more and how to register your camper/campers.

Our Wildlife Warriors have had an action-packed camp so far this week.

Attending a Zookeeper Chat featuring our Galapagos Tortoises, feeding some of our feeding area animals, visiting our Discovery Center to check out all our reptiles who live there, crafting Warrior Shields and learning about endangered animals are just a few of the things our campers have enjoyed.

Thank you for choosing Austin Zoo as your child's/children's summer camp destination!

We still have some space available in our camps. Click on the link below if you would like to learn more.

A great group of volunteers from Samsung Austin recently joined us for a day.

We always have so many projects that need to get done around our Zoo, their help was so appreciated.

Their contribution helps us and hopefully affords them a change of pace from their responsibilities at Samsung.

If you are part of a group that would like to come out to the Zoo to volunteer send an email to [email protected].

Thanks again Samsung!!
