Zoo Miami: General Admission Ticket

Zoo Miami is the largest zoo in Florida and the fifth largest in the United States. Our lush, tropical, open-air exhibits replicate our animals' natural habitats and allow guests to enjoy beautiful and endangered wildlife at a safe, yet remarkably close range. As the only sub-tropical zoo in the continental U.S., the unique climate in South Florida allows us to care for a wide variety of animals from Asia, Australia, Africa, and the Americas representing a broad mix of species that is unlike any other zoo in the country.

Zoo Miami today occupies almost 750 acres, 4 miles of walkways, and is home to more than 2,000 animals representing over 375 different species. Of this population, more than 130 species are at risk in the wild: many classified as endangered or critically endangered. The zoo also houses more than 750 species of trees, palms and other plants, and over 100 special exhibits showcasing a broad number of species and scientific topics.

Zoo Miami is proud to be an active leader in many global wildlife and environmental conservation initiatives, and we are currently involved in about 30 programs annually across five continents. We are accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA) which means we have passed a rigorous application and inspection process and meet or exceed the AZA's standards for animal health and welfare, fundraising, zoo staffing, and involvement in local and global conservation efforts.
