Bringing the Zoo to YOU!

We know a lot of parents are looking for activities for their kiddos these days, so we came up with a few things you can do at home to teach your kids about some the animals at the zoo!

We’ll keep adding new videos or activities to the pages below, so keep checking back!

Join us for some virtual fun!

Henry Vilas Zoo relies on donations to operate. During our closure, we have lost a large part of our revenue stream. If you are enjoying our keeper chats and educational activities and you are able, please consider making a tax deductible donation today. Every dollar donated goes directly towards feeding and caring for the animals who depend on us everyday.
