Fort Worth Zoo Announces New Exhibit: Hunters of Africa and Asian Predators

The Fort Worth Zoo is excited to announce the upcoming construction of phase three of their A Wilder Vision master plan. The new exhibit will be called Hunters of Africa and Asian Predators, and will feature reimagined, renovated, and new habitats for the Zoo’s big cats, as well as other residents.

New Additions and Reconnections

Upon the exhibit’s completion, the Zoo will also introduce new species and reconnect with some past residents. Visitors can look forward to seeing a variety of exotic predators, such as lions, tigers, and hyenas in their new, lush habitats.

Temporary Farewell to Current Residents

While the zoo prepares for construction, some of the zoo residents must leave their current home at the Fort Worth Zoo. Visitors are encouraged to make the most of the opportunity to connect with these fierce predators before they are temporarily relocated. Among the animals leaving for now are the lions, tigers, zebras, and hyenas.

Saying Farewell in Style

The zoo welcomes visitors to give these animals a proper send-off with lion roars, hyena howls, or by leaving handwritten cards, which can be dropped off at a designated location. Visitors can also give air hugs or high fives to show their support as the animals head to their temporary homes.

The zoo offers visitors the chance to get up close and personal with exotic animals in their natural habitats.
