IDAHO FALLS — The Idaho Falls Zoo is extending its regular season into November to give visitors more chances to enjoy the best little zoo in the west.
“We can’t wait to show you the zoo during the fall,” Idaho Falls Zoo Public Engagement Curator Sunny Katseanes says. “Fall is a great time to visit the zoo as some of the cold-hardy animals, like camels and snow leopards, become more active in the cooler temperatures.”
Extending the season from Oct. 29 to Nov. 27, the Idaho Falls Zoo will be open Saturdays and Sundays from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., weather permitting.
The Zoo is also offering a discounted admission rate for the fall season. For only $7 for adults (13-61), $5.50 for seniors (62+), $4.50 for kids (3-12), and only $0.50 for ages 2 and under. Memberships and guest tickets are also welcome during this time. The gift shop will also be the perfect place to stop by to shop for some fun and unique holiday gifts.
“You may be surprised to know all the zoo animals stay right in your zoo during the colder months,” Katseanes explains. “So be aware that as the temperatures decrease, the tropical birds and reptiles will move to their warm and cozy winter quarters inside the zoo for their health and wellbeing and will not be available for public viewing.”
