Whether you’ve always wanted to meet a sloth, feed a capybara, spend time with a kangaroo, or see a tiger up close, Wild World of Animals offers guided animal encounters that give visitors the opportunity to meet these animals while learning about them in a safe, educational setting.
Each encounter is led by members of the animal care team who share their knowledge and help visitors learn more about the animals in their care. Along the way, visitors have the chance to meet animals they may have only seen in documentaries or online, observe them up close when appropriate, and hear directly from the people who know them best.
Ask Questions
One of the best parts of an animal encounter is getting the chance to talk with the people who care for these animals every day.
Whether you’re curious about what an animal eats, where it lives in the wild, how it behaves, or what makes its personality unique, the team is always happy to answer your questions. You’ll probably leave knowing something you didn’t know before.
What You’ll Experience
Every animal has its own habits and personality, so no two encounters are exactly alike.
During your visit, you’ll learn about the animal’s natural behaviors, unique characteristics, and the care it receives at Wild World of Animals. Whether you’re meeting a sloth, feeding a capybara, interacting with a kangaroo, or seeing a tiger up close, each encounter offers a different experience and a chance to better understand that species.
Great for Families, Couples, and Animal Lovers
Animal encounters are a popular choice for birthdays, family outings, special occasions, or simply spending time together doing something different.
For many families, the conversations continue long after the visit ends, with children talking about the animals they met and adults sharing what they learned during the encounter. Whether you’ve loved animals your whole life or you’re simply looking for something different to do, animal encounters at Wild World of Animals give visitors of all ages the chance to learn something new while meeting animals they might not otherwise have the opportunity to see up close.
Reserve Your Encounter
Many animal encounters have limited availability and require reservations, so it’s best to book the encounter you’d like ahead of your visit.
Whether it’s your first visit or you’re coming back to meet another animal, you’ll learn more about the species you’re meeting from the people who care for them.
