Hours & Rates

This summer, enjoy a shady stroll through the Prospect Park Zoo. Hop down Discovery Trail to meet kangaroos, wallabies, otters, and red pandas. Cool off while the kids make crafts during Wild Art Wednesdays. Visit the smallest kangaroo (AKA the bettong), porcupines, and a pygmy slow loris inside our new Amazing Nocturnal Animals exhibit.
