From aboard our famous North Shore Bank Safari Train, see if you can spot dozens of Easter eggs hidden on the tree-lined route winding through the Zoo.

Animal Enrichment Activities
The Zoo's animal population will also enjoy Easter-related enrichment items in their exhibits. Enrichment keeps the animals active and healthy, allowing them to express behaviors similar to those they would in the wild. Amur tigers, orangutans and rhinos are a few of the animals receiving these special treats.
