The Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden summer season is underway with the return of summer shows, animal encounters and
unique new experiences! Presented by Cincinnati & Northern Kentucky Honda Dealers, Summer Adventure at the Cincinnati
Zoo allows guests to experience the best the Zoo has to offer!
Zoo visitors can see birds soar overhead at the Great American Wings of Wonder Bird Show, cheetahs race at top speeds at the
Cheetah Encounter, hand feed Maasai giraffe, watch an elephant take a bath, and stop by the Zoo’s kea exhibit (opening June 6)
to see fun flights and demonstrations. In addition, around every bend there is the opportunity to put hand-to-scale or feather
during random animal encounters that take place every day throughout the park.
The new kea exhibit, featuring ornilux “Bird Safe” viewing glass that will turn the flight cage into an interactive exhibit, will
host kea chats and kea encounters throughout the summer. Zoo keepers will also open up the flight cage and invite guests
inside for unique kea demonstrations! The exhibit will also feature exciting games that encourage families to work together
like kea to solve problems and inspire critical conservation conversations.
Opening June 28, and extending the already acclaimed exhibit, the Zoo will open phase IV of its AFRICA exhibit. The newest
phase is a must-see and will add the wide vista view of several new African species, including the African painted dogs, several
species of gazelle, African birds such as ostrich, and many more!
See what the Zoo has in store this summer, presented by Cincinnati & Northern Kentucky Honda Dealers, starting May 24 at
