Please be advised that our bird aviaries are temporarily currently closed to Zoo guests.
Your Toronto Zoo is committed to the health and safety of the animals in our care. We are taking proactive steps to protect our birds from Avian Influenza which has been confirmed in a wild bird in southern Ontario. By limiting access to the aviaries to only Zoo staff, we protect them from any contamination that may come from outside of the Zoo.
Please note the Multifaith Prayer and Spiritual Space has recently been relocated within the building by the top of the boardwalk at Africa Pavilion.
