That’s how we do Kansas City.
In Kansas City, the thrill of the wild is just minutes from the heart of the city at the Kansas City Zoo, a 202-acre nature sanctuary in Swope Park. Discover some of the world’s most exotic animals, including chimpanzees, penguins, orangutans, a polar bear and 1,700 other creatures of all shapes and sizes—right here in Kansas City.
The Helzberg Penguin Plaza is home to three different species of penguins from South America and Antarctica. Watch these charming black-and-white birds hop, swim and dive in their 100,000-gallon saltwater pool—always a crowd-pleaser!
See the Kansas City Zoo’s very own polar bear, Berlin, as she jumps, wrestles and plays in Polar Bear Passage. Then, learn from knowledgeable zookeepers about what it takes to survive in the snowy Arctic.
Hang out with the Zoo’s ape friends, including four of the newest members in the primate family, baby chimpanzees Milo and Ruw, baby gorilla Masika, and baby orangutan Dusty!
The Kansas City Zoo is fresh off a huge year. The family favorite welcomed more than a million visitors in 2016 and shows no signs of slowing down. Come see for yourself what keeps families coming back year after year!
