Wild Aware Utah Day

We will be holding our 29th World of the Wild annual art exhibition at the zoo from January 28 to February 12, 2022 in the Rendezoo Room.

Join us as we celebrate our two new polar bears at Polar Bear White Out! Help #SaveTheSeaIce and learn all about Polar Bears International, a conservation partner of the zoo that works to save these exquisite animals and the Arctic sea ice.
