Located in Audubon Park, the New Orleans Zoo is a 58-acre haven for both humans and animals. As one of the oldest zoos in the United States, we take pride in our commitment to conservation, education, and community engagement.
Our mission is to inspire a love of nature and wildlife in all who visit us, while also supporting the preservation of endangered species and their habitats.
As you walk through our gates, you'll be transported to a world of wonder and discovery. From the majestic giraffes and elephants to the playful monkeys and penguins, every exhibit is designed to educate and entertain.
Our African Safari exhibit takes you on a journey across the savannah, where you can get up close and personal with these incredible creatures.
At the New Orleans Zoo, we believe that education is key to inspiring the next generation of conservationists. That's why we offer a range of educational programs for children and adults alike.
We also partner with local organizations and international conservation efforts to protect endangered species and preserve their habitats.
