The drive-through section offers large forested habitats viewed from inside a vehicle, while the walk-through area provides smaller species and presentations. Rules about windows, doors, feeding, and stopping protect both animals and visitors.
Vehicle condition matters: soft tops, open vehicles, pets, and unsecured cargo are subject to restrictions. Arrive early for active animals, keep windows closed where directed, and do not confuse close visibility with domestication.
