Big News on the Savanna 🦓✨

After more than a year of construction, the new Africa Grasslands building (on the pathway to the Canadian Domain) is ready for you to visit!

This flexible, new habitat was designed to meet the year-round needs of African hoofstock at your Toronto Zoo. It features modern, climate-resilient infrastructure, expanded indoor spaces with natural substrate, and a covered outdoor yard to support the daily health, enrichment, and well-being of the animals in our care.

It also has a viewing gallery that will be accessible to every member and guest. This building reflects our commitment to the highest standards in animal care, conservation leadership, and immersive guest education.

Zoo members and guests may see female Grevy zebras Zuri and Zari through the viewing windows and out in their grass habitat. Although the house is intended for a larger herd, starting with two animals will allow Wildlife Care to figure out the best work flow, problem-solve any concerns, and ensure everything is prepared for more animals to move in.

As one of Canada’s leading community funded, conservation science organizations operating a world class Zoo, your Toronto Zoo continues evolving to meet the needs of people, wildlife and wild spaces today and into the future.

The new Africa Grasslands habitat is just one of many exciting changes that you will see at your Zoo this summer ☀️ Stop by to see this new space. #GuardiansofWild
