 New Exhibit Construction  

Bears:

The bear range is now closed for re-construction! Our popular bear range is undergoing a wonderful new transformation and expansion. While contruction is going on however, the area is off-limits to zoo visitors. We will have no bears on display for a couple of years. The exhibits will be part of the new Internation Polar Bear Conservation Centre.

Lions:

The lion enclosure is now open! The exhibit features a wonderful new interpretive indoor area and year-round viewing of the lions. Funding for this project came from a $350,000 donation from the Zoological Society of Manitoba, with the balance from the City of Winnipeg.

 

Sea Eagles:

The Steller's sea eagle exhibit is now open!

The Zoological Society of Manitoba commited $220,000 to the construction on a new Steller's sea eagle exhibit.

Zoo Murals

Over the last couple of years the inside of the Tropical House, the back of the bear range, the zoo office building, the Kinsmen Discovery Centre, the Native Bird Building and many other areas have gone from drab to fab! We think you will really enjoy the new nature-scape murals that now adorn the zoo. The most recent mural can be seen in the new indoor lion exhibit and we expect to have an insect mural painted in the tunnels of the KDC by the fall.
