Visit Wellington Zoo and fall in love with nature.

Wellington Zoo is home to over 500 animals, from the amazing insects and invertebrates of Hero HQ, to the only bears in New Zealand - the gorgeous ASB Malayan Sun Bears, as well as lions, tigers, giraffes, Tasmanian Devils, and many more.

We exist to connect people with the natural world. The Zoo is a place of connections, within the Zoo, off site and via technology that links our community together to make a difference for the environment. 

We believe in a ‘love not loss’ approach to environmental issues, that is by first having visitors and our community engage with and love animals they are more ready to understand how they can take action to protect the environment and be willing to do so.

We are proud Wellingtonians, and we want Wellingtonians to be proud of their Zoo. 

Through employment of Wellingtonians, working with Wellington suppliers, and providing high quality visitor experiences for our community, we aim to be a vibrant part of our community, and to be a reflection of our city - contributing to the thriving cultural and natural heritage of Wellington as an accessible and liveable city.
