Explore the habitats of critically endangered tamarins, vulnerable military macaws, and other species facing habitat loss like the toco toucan, tamandua, prehensile-tailed porcupine, and scarlet ibis.
Renovated and new warm-holdings will ensure each animal is comfortable and healthy during the cold months as well as create year-round viewing opportunities for guests.
Our commitment to conservation propels us to update the exhibit, enlarging habitats by over 200% and introducing mixed-species environments for an authentic wildlife experience.
Embark on an educational journey while engaging with diverse animal habitats, complemented by a new educational zone near the popular Turtle Cove play area. This new space will be activated for summer camps, school trip visits or to host pop-up animal ambassadors.
At the heart of Abilene Zoo’s mission is education, this renovation makes learning accessible and enriching for every visitor and brings a critical conservation message to life in new and surprising ways.
