Elephant Discovery & Bull Barn

$50.00

60 minutes, $50 (all ages)

Tours offered 2:15pm on Saturdays September 24

See just what it takes to house a 12,000 pound elephant during this backstage tour of the Bull Barn. The tour will begin at Colores, the Education Building, with a short keeper-led presentation and video about the BioPark’s herd of 6 Asian Elephants, as well as discussing elephants in the wild, and how your actions matter when it comes to elephants. Then venture outside to the front of the exhibit where you will have a front-row view of the keepers and elephants as you observe a training session with one of the magnificent elephants, as keepers demonstrate the unique behavioral enrichment program our elephants enjoy.

General Discovery Tours information:

Journey into the heart of the Zoo, behind-the-scenes where the keepers care for the animals. Learn how the animals’ needs are cared for, including diets, enrichment, healthcare, and more. Tours also include front-of-the exhibit viewing of Animals where keepers’ insights and stories will be shared. (Animals remain in the front of the exhibit while participants are behind-the-scenes. No meet and greet is included.) No age requirement.

Tours are limited to 4 to 12 guests to provide an ideal learning environment. Should a tour not reach the minimum number, you will be contacted 24 hours in advance for rescheduling.
