Plus 48,000 unique plant species — the Indy Zoo really has it all.

With the opening of their new Front Entry Experience earlier this summer, visitors have the opportunity to meet Wild Encounter animals (think: parrots, sloths, snakes), and get up close with kangaroos, giraffes, flamingos and more with the Animal Feed Experience.

This fall, Zahara, the African elephant, will give birth to a baby calf — the world’s first elephant ever to be born via artificial insemination to a mother who was also born through the same process. Plan your visit
