Daylight savings time is done for the year, but zoo savings time is just getting started. Now through Nov. 8, tickets to the Oregon Zoo are $13 per person — about half off regular admission.
“Before we head into the busy holiday season, we’re inviting folks to press pause, take a moment and connect with wildlife,” said Oregon Zoo director Heidi Rahn. “The grounds are beautiful this time of year, and it’s a great chance to see what’s new at the zoo.”
Guests who haven’t visited in a while have a chance to see new arrivals like red pandas Enoki and Liu and polar bear Kallik, who turns 4 years old next week.
Zoo admission also includes the following activities:
- 10:30 a.m. - crocodile feeding (Sunday only)
- 10:45 a.m. - bat keeper talk
- 11:15 a.m. - Family Farm keeper talk
- 11:30 a.m. - condor keeper talk
- 1 p.m. - sea otter keeper talk
- 1 p.m. - chimpanzee keeper talk
- 2 p.m. - penguin feeding
- 2:15 p.m. - orangutan or gibbon keeper talk
The zoo moved to fall hours on Sunday, and is open daily from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Tickets should be reserved online in advance via the zoo website.
