Welcome to the Indianapolis Zoo, a brand that not only protects nature but also inspires people to care for our world. As one of the most significant zoos in America, we offer a wide range of products and services that are designed to educate, entertain, and conserve. Our Simon Skjodt International Orangutan Center is an award-winning facility that aims to ensure a positive future for critically endangered orangutans.

With one of the largest groups of orangutans in any American zoo, this center serves as a vital education, research, and conservation hub. Experience the wonders of Africa in our Plains exhibit, where you'll be surrounded by tall grasses and trees, making you feel like you're on a real safari. Explore the Deserts Dome, an arid oasis filled with beautiful and mysterious creatures, some of which are free-roaming.

Immerse yourself in the brilliance of birds at Flights of Fancy, and discover the rich biodiversity of temperate and tropical forests in our Forests exhibits. Get up close with aquatic animals at our Oceans collection, and don't miss the opportunity to meet dolphins in their own environment at the St. Vincent Dolphin Pavilion.

With a variety of animal adventures, educational programs, and conservation efforts, the Indianapolis Zoo offers something for everyone. Join us in our mission to protect and preserve the natural world. Plan your visit today and make unforgettable memories while supporting our efforts in wildlife conservation
