San Diego Zoo

The San Diego Zoo is located in Balboa Park, San Diego, California, and is one of the world's most renowned and progressive zoos. Established in 1916, it spans 100 acres and houses over 3,700 animals representing more than 650 species and subspecies. Known for pioneering the concept of open-air, cageless exhibits, the zoo's mission is to inspire people to connect with and care for wildlife.

The San Diego Zoo offers an unforgettable visitor experience, with exhibits replicating natural habitats such as the African Rainforest, Arctic Tundra, and Australian Outback. Guests can explore the zoo on guided bus tours, aerial tram rides, or by walking through immersive trails. Engaging experiences like animal encounters, interactive shows, and behind-the-scenes tours allow visitors to deepen their connection with the animal kingdom.

Committed to conservation, the San Diego Zoo operates under San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance, actively participating in worldwide conservation initiatives. The zoo engages in breeding programs for endangered species, wildlife research, habitat restoration, and community-based conservation efforts. Its commitment extends beyond the zoo's boundaries with partnerships, grants, and field projects to preserve biodiversity.
