Seattle’s Woodland Park Zoo is home to over 1,100 animals representing 300 animal species.

Connect with nature as you explore the world of gorillas, grizzlies, lions, giraffes, and more. Meet inquisitive and intelligent ambassador animals at outdoor theater programs–a hornbill, porcupine, raccoon, miniature pot-bellied pigs, and others. Watch penguins “fly” underwater along a breathtaking desert coast. Delight in the playful antics of otters. Get up close with orangutans in an open forest canopy. Experience the beauty of free-flying butterflies in a seasonal garden. Encounter tigers and learn how to protect these magnificent cats. See…and save wildlife!

The zoo’s 92 acres are divided into bioclimatic zones, showcasing various natural habitats from humid tropical rain forests and coastal deserts to temperate rain forests like those in the Pacific Northwest. Renowned for its innovative exhibits and extensive horticultural collection, the award-winning zoo is celebrated as one of the best in the world.

Great zoo - This zoo was really enjoyable to walk around. They had a lot of animals and many of them had roomy enclosures that weren’t just stone walls. I really enjoyed seeing the red panda, the lions, the rhino, the bird/rainforest enclosure. Also, this zoo was huge! Walked around 3 hours and still didn’t see everything.

Beautiful zoo; Nice animal variety - This is a beautiful zoo. If you see everything, including stopping for lunch, it takes about 2.5 hours to go through. Currently, the zoo is undergoing some expansion/renovation, so there are some paths and enclosures that may not be accessible. The zoo offers animals lots of space and beautiful, natural enclosures that are clean and well maintained. The animals looked healthy and well cared for. The zoo is divided into different sections, and offer a lot of animals and birds. There are plenty of benches where one can stop and watch them. There is a carousel on site (extra charge), three different opportunities for animal feedings (extra charge), and a food court. NOTE: You are allowed to take your own food/drinks inside, and there are plenty of picnic tables and grassy areas to eat at. This was a pleasant way to spend the day. NOTE: Parking rates vary, and are credit card only.

Emptiest zoo ever - Never have I visited a zoo that was so empty of animals. We got to see a total of maybe 6 animals out of about 40 on the map.
