That’s a wrap on Summer Safari Camp! 🐾☀️

Our final week of camp was filled with wild discoveries, hands-on activities, animal encounters, games, keeper chats, and plenty of Zoo memories. From curious questions to big smiles, our campers made the most of every moment exploring the amazing world of animals.

Thank you to all of the families who joined us for Summer Safari this year, and thank you to our education team, zookeepers, and staff who helped make each week such a fun and meaningful experience.

We loved spending the summer learning, exploring, and going wild with you at Alexandria Zoo! 💚

A little pink, a little peaceful, and the perfect waterfall view. 🦩💦

Our Chilean flamingos know how to make a quiet moment look picture-perfect. Whether they’re wading through the water, resting on one leg, or showing off those beautiful rosy feathers, they always bring a splash of color to the Zoo.

Stop by and enjoy the view on your next visit to Alexandria Zoo!

Summer Safari & Teen Trek campers get a keeper’s-eye view of the Zoo!

Throughout camp, Alexandria Zoo’s zookeepers have been sharing stories about the animals they care for, answering questions, and helping campers learn what it takes to work at a zoo.

From daily animal care to training, enrichment, teamwork, and conservation, these behind-the-scenes moments give campers a closer look at the dedication that goes into caring for wildlife every day.

Just popping in to say hello!

White-nosed coatis are curious, clever mammals known for their long tails, flexible noses, and busy-foraging energy. Whether they’re climbing, sniffing, or exploring, there’s always something interesting happening with these active animals.

Teen Trek campers got a bear-y special behind-the-scenes experience! 🐻

Campers spent time learning about Alexandria Zoo’s American black bears, Chipp and Obie, and Andean bear, Chaska, while helping keepers with some of the daily care that goes into keeping their habitats clean, healthy, and enriching.

They helped place food, assisted with outdoor habitat cleaning, and watched a training session with Chipp and Obie, getting a closer look at how keeper care, trust, and teamwork support the animals every day.
