Wild Changes Underway

Thank you for your patience as we build new and improved habitats for our hippo and future rhinos. We can’t wait for you (and the animals) to see the result!

Fall-Winter Wild Connections Tours

Back by popular demand, red panda and reindeer encounters are now available!

Welcome Lee, Our New Bull Calf

Come say hello to Lee — and Mabel! — on your next visit, and learn why the milking process is so important for our other species too.

Fall for the Zoo

The Milwaukee County Zoo is the place to be this season! Join us for a lineup of great fall activities along with autumn colors.

Today (10/23) is International Snow Leopard Day 🐾, created to raise awareness and support for the conservation of snow leopards and their mountain habitats.

Snow leopards live in the mountains of Central Asia and their grey-white fur makes excellent camouflage with its dark spots and rosettes.

Choto is pictured in the first two photos, followed by Orya. 💚
