Reid Park Zoo: Anteater Behind-the-Scenes Experience

Venture behind-the-scenes to meet one of the giant anteaters at Reid Park Zoo. Learn about their amazing adaptations, how we care for these unique animals at the Zoo, and how the Zoo supports conservation efforts in Brazil to protect this iconic species.

Note: For animal safety, all participants must wear N-95 or KN-95 masks for the duration of this program. The Zoo will supply masks for any participants who do not have their own. By registering for this program, you acknowledge that you and everyone in your group will properly wear the supplied masks for the duration of the program.

Age:
All participants must be 5 or older and at least one adult must attend.

Time: Tours begin promptly at 10:00 a.m. (unless stated otherwise).

This is a 30-minute experience. Latecomers are unable to join a program already in session.

Price:
$35 per person (Zoo members: $30, you must log in to receive the discount, which will be applied AFTER you click “add to cart”)

Guests should plan to arrive at the entrance of the Zoo at least 10 minutes early. The educator will meet the group near the peacock statue at the front of the Zoo.

Please keep in mind that all of our animals have the ability to express choice and control and may decide not to participate in the experience.
