Don't let leaf pass you by 😉

Tapirs have great control of their snout and will use it to pick leaves from trees, drink water, and snoof around. This is known as a prehensile nose and is actually their upper lip!

What has two eyes, one foot, and a lip that grows forever?
Conch. A critter well-known in many areas of the world, but mostly as a feature on a menu. .

Palm Beach Zoo's Scientific Dive Team was invited to join our friends and partners at Shedd Aquarium on a research cruise to collect critical data on these ancient snails. When you relocate them out of harm's way, what do they do? Where do they go? How long does it take them to get there? All questions that need answers.

In the wild world of conservation, nothing gets done alone. This collaboration was recently featured on in the latest release of AZA Connect! Learn more about this trip and the power of partnerships within the The Association of Zoos and Aquariums community by reading the article below. It's quick! We promise.

Our Story

As Palm Beach County’s only top-rated Zoological experience, we are home to hundreds of animals, many of them endangered. Our mission is to inspire people to act on behalf of wildlife and the natural world.

Our unique tropical zoo showcases an animal collection (Malayan tigers, jaguars, Mexican spider monkeys, panther) from around the world, living in natural habitats. Enjoy shady paths, a colorful carousel, an interactive water play fountain, Nature Play Pavilion, and a full-service restaurant. Book a behind-the-scenes animal experience and get up close and personal with a sloth, koalas, capybaras, Aldabra tortoises or mingle with flamingos.

There’s always something new at Palm Beach Zoo! Enjoy WILD events annually such as Safari Nights, Roar & Pour, Boo at the Zoo, Zoo Lights, and Noon Year’s Eve.

Annual Zoo memberships are a great value and provide free admission year-round. We are open every day except Thanksgiving and Christmas from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m, and parking is always FREE!
