No two days, or even two hours, are the same at Auckland Zoo. With more than 1,000 animals and 129 species to see, see why Auckland Zoo was voted the third best zoo in the South Pacific, and number one ranked NZ zoo, in the 2014 TripAdvisor Travelers' Choice Awards. Be sure to catch one, or all, of our daily free Animal Encounters, where zookeepers share their extensive knowledge about our amazing animals.
