DAILY INTERPRETIVE TALKS & FEEDINGS

The Greater Vancouver Zoo offers a wide variety of interesting, fun and educational interpretive talks that you can enjoy during our peak season (April 1st through September 30). Effective March 16 we will start two of our exciting  interpretive talks (Meet a Reptile and the Lion/Tiger Feeding) early for the season starting March 16th daily. Except on Wednesday's there will be no Lion/Tiger Feeding.  

Please check our Welcome Board upon arrival for a list of all daily activities and/or presentationsWe are open year round and each season offers something completely different.

Please keep in mind that on some days our animal friends might not feel like cooperating like you want them to. Since they are volunteers, our schedule and theirs might change - we hope you understand that all of the presentations are subject to change.
