Wilder Institute / Calgary Zoo
There’s lots to see and even more to do when you visit the Wilder Institute/Calgary Zoo!
Travel to the chilly waters of Penguin Plunge. Hike up through the Rockies to find bighorn sheep, caribou, grizzlies, cougars, moose, and our new polar bear 'Siku'. Safari through the Savannah to see a tower of giraffes, a prickle of African crested porcupines, and a conspiracy of lemurs. Wade through the Rainforest to find West African dwarf crocodiles, Eastern black-and-white colobus monkeys, and western lowland gorillas. Meander through the tranquility and serenity of the ornamental Dorothy Harvie Gardens then flutter along with the butterflies inside the ENMAX Conservatory. Venture east to see the playful antics of the Japanese macaques and red pandas. Be sure not to miss the majestic Amur tigers and snow leopards while you're there!
