Education & Camps

Learning comes naturally at the Toronto Zoo!

The Toronto Zoo provides the perfect setting for individuals of all ages to comfortably explore plant and animal life from around the world. Using the Zoo as a living classroom, the Education Branch is dedicated to providing key opportunities to help people understand their connection to the natural world, to foster a love and respect for wildlife and wild spaces, and inspire people to live in more sustainable ways.

We offer a great line up of fun-filled programs throughout the year designed to quench your thirst for animal knowledge and enhance your appreciation of wildlife and the Zoo. Whether you choose to spend a week at one of our summer day camps, sleep under the stars at our Serengeti Bush Camp or join us for one of our exciting daytime or evening programs, learning just comes naturally at the Zoo!
