The Detroit Zoo is Now Open with a Few New Rules in Place
We’ve all been wondering about the animals at the Detroit Zoo. And, we’ve been missing them dearly! If you’re like us, then you’ll be glad to hear the Detroit Zoo is now open!
Due to Covid-19, the zoo opens with a few new rules to ensure proper social distancing to keep guests and staff members safe. Here’s what’s new at the Zoo:
- Masks are required, especially in the indoor viewing areas.
- Reservations are required.
- Guests must reserve their time slot on the zoo’s website, www.detroitzoo.org, prior to their visit.
- Stay 6 feet apart from other guests and groups.
- Unfortunatley the Zoofari market is closed but the online shopping and kiosks are open.
Not ready to visit and interested in zoo type fun at home? No problem! The Detroit Zoo offers some great virtual opportunities on their website fun for the whole family.
