ABQ BioPark Zoo

I believe so but I know on their website it does say what days are open and not open

I went last week, and many people had their coolers, didn't peak in them, but I'm sure some snacks were in there. They have funnel cakes and snacks for vending.

Yes

Not sure, but even service dogs are restricted in some areas. They aren't allowed near many of the carnivores because it could cause them to become aggressive.

No

Today is the grand opening For the otters at around 11:00 a.m. July 3, 2018 And they're gonna be at the aquarium

They rent them for $7-10 better off taken one if you have one

I believe so

Yes

$14.50 for non local adults. $10 for local adults. 9a-5p currently, extended hours in the summer.

When you purchase a "combo ticket " they will provide a map of the pick up location with times. The train leaves directly from the zoo to the BioPark.

If the Zoo can't take your snake, try the Rattlesnake Museum! They have all kinds of snakes that they have acquired all different kinds of ways and they are SO GOOD at caring for them!

All areas within the zoo are connected, the aquarium and Botanical gardens are separate places and require separate tickets or the big pass to all of them

The city of Albuquerque still doesn't have a concrete answer to this. Expect summer to late summer, entirely depending on COVID case trends and vaccination of the population.

Pay in advance, online

9-5 Tuesday - Sunday

So long as the dog has service animal vest and proper i.d. should be no issue.

Yes

Yes they do!!

Their website says that they are open from 9:00-5:30 on Labor Day.

It is through the city. How ever the city of Albuquerque website help me out for info with membership dates prices and a lot of

You have to be 14

No it's not allowed

I believe zoo admissions for NM residence is $10 for adults $5 for children

I would check online

I think its like 15 for adults and 10 for kids dont quote me on that

Yes

A lot! It's a nice zoo. Penguin exhibit will be opening very soon.

No not yet they said Hopefully early summer.

Well thank you for the kind answers lots of help.

Not normally, though there is/was a way to get free admission with a valid library card through the city of albuquerque. You might look into that. Otherwise I believe it is about 15 for adults and 5 or 6 for kids

They have different packages for different groups. Go online for more information.

Yes some of the animals are off exhibit at this time and there is some construction going on

I called the city just now there planning on opening in the exhibit the spring of 2019

Yo no se.

It is now open.

10.00 per person with a NM ID

You can always call 311 and get a route planned out and they can also give you the times that the bus runs today

Yep! My family and I brought wraps the last time we went. You'll probably want to bring an insulated bag, to keep your food cold (or hot).

They were out last Friday.

Yes. It will save you $.

You get a receipt you keep for the combo entrance which includes the zoo, aquarium, and botanic gardens. It's an amazing deal!

This is what the website says, June-August Saturdays, Sundays and summer holidays (Memorial Day, July 4 & Labor Day). Gates open 9 a.m. - 5:30 p.m. Park closes at 6 p.m

This is what the website says, June-August Saturdays, Sundays and summer holidays (Memorial Day, July 4 & Labor Day). Gates open 9 a.m. - 5:30 p.m. Park closes at 6 p.m

Yes, the zoo is open year around.

You get a discount.

You dont need an ID card to go to the zoo

Yes

You can show them at the gate from your phone

I think in all areas it is restricted to service dogs. In predator areas they are prohibited so your service dog doesn't get eaten by a lion.

A full day. Go to the zoo first and then head to the aquarium when it is hot so you'll be in the ac. Also animals aren't as active when it's hot.

Yes, you can bring in a wagon. Your own much and drinks. There is a large grass area for a picnic if you want.that's lunch.

I bet cabq.gov has some info.

It is open almost year round. Closed on a few holidays only

Yes

Yes, yes you can

9:00am when it's a little cooler

Their website answered all my questions and so I suggest you spend 30 seconds and do the same.

The elephants are very healthy, these a male, female and baby that can be kept separate when it's time to eat:)

No you can't & sorry I didn't respond sooner

No

No.. you have to buy them online

Nope. You must buy tickets online for a scheduled 30-minute window.

Yes

Yep! There were lots of them there yesterday.

Yes, although few sections like around the elephants are under construction.

Yes I believe it will be open in October. Keep in mind many observations are closed. I saw lots of crowds trying to get a peak of the animals and they're not even enough staff to control this from happening.

Yes

Yes

I have seen some in past, but not last few years. The center pond has a variety of ducks and large Koi

Yes it is open. Reservation only🐼🐻

I believe it is by appointment when you purchase tickets.

10 adults 5 kids

At the Bio park and/or at the Zoo. The library.

4 times a year, they do half price.

$14.50 for adults. Seniors & children less. Residents of New Mexico are less usually by half. The Zoo has special weekend events where NM residents & children get in for $2.00 to $ 2.75 Also Libraries & the newspaper advertises all events. We love our Zoo and zoo animals and the people who keep our Zoo happening.

I found this zoo to be lots of fun, plenty of shade and lots of places to sit. The animals seemed in good health, mental and physical.

You should call them

They are $7-$10

This exhibit is opening in less than a month. Finally!

Not sure since I don't live in ABQ. But it is a great zoo.

Carry-all wagons can be rented for $5, two-seated wagons are available for $7.

It does not close for seasons.

Ty

No

Positive attitude and confidence..o and a job application. No worries you can use me as a reference :)

Remodeling. I've been a part of the construction. A few things get closed from time to time

I think you should call the office in the morning to explain. They are super nice and normally very helpful.

Yes

The told us in the fall.

They offer pet kennel at customer service while you visit It's free

Was peak free morning from 6 am to 10 am

Not yet. Estimated time will be Oct 2018. Still under construction

Dustin, we were there a couple of days ago. We did not see any penguins. Their exhibit is still under construction. They should be there by the fall of this year.

Probably 're check it out but they might let you use it but I'm not 99 %sure

Poster said Fall 2018. Not sure if this is true, lots of construction needs to be done.

For NM residents it's $10 for adults, $5.50 for seniors, $5 for children 3-12, and free for children 2 and younger. I believe it's $1-2 extra in each of those categories if you're from out of state.

$10-Adults $6-kids ages 3-12 I'm sure though correct me if I'm wrong

I have seen some very young volunteers around. So you should either call or drop a visit to the visitor center.

311 can answer moat any question about the zoo or connect you to them

They close at 5pm. Quite early if you ask me.

Tryto catch o e of the4 free days each year

I would not try the walk in the heat of the day

9 am to 5:30

Teen volunteers start at age 14+ for Nature Guides, 16 + for conservation camp counselors and student volunteers, and 18+ for all others. 16 years seems to be the minimum age for entry level jobs depending on the type of job you're applying for.

They are anticipating opening the penguin exhibit in the fall

No

Yes. You can leave and go back in. They'll give you a bracelet.

Best zoo in the world

No. I read the penguin exhibit will be open this fall

As long as you have a receipt for admission you will have in and out access

No

Yes it is.

Thank you all for the response. CCW (lawful Concealed Carry Weapon) was auto corrected after submission. Cheers

Only wheelchairs

9 to five

Rollerblades, skateboards, bikes and scooters are not allowed.

Can ride to the zoo, has a bike rack outside. But I don't believe you can ride inside the zoo.

No pets are allowed on Zoo and Botanic Garden grounds or inside the aquarium. Kennels are available. Inquire with a receptionist. ADA-recognized service animals arepermitted in public areas of all BioPark facilities.

Service dogs only However at customer service they have kennels . 2 large 3 small to house pets while you walk through the zoo

Dont think so

We saw the baby elephant on May 7 so I'm sure he will be out and about. We saw them at feeding time around 10am or a bit sooner

They now require that the wheelchairs be returned at 4.

10 for NM residents, 15 for 3 everyone else. Depending on the age of the child, under 3 is free. Over 3 ranges, from 5 dollars to 8.

I havent heard anything about that

I had my wedding at the botanical gardens and we had to work with the event coordinator.

Yes

No, only service animals

Out if state adult $14 - in state $10.

Only service animals are allowed, but even sergice animals are not allowed in certain areas of the zoo

Yup very true

Yes

It's a zoo not an amusement park

Yes.

You can call them if nobody gives u an answer

It said some day but not today.. Says coming in April 2018, but said it may be later due to construction conflict..

Yes across the street.

Yes it is. Just know that the train runs at certain times. And whatever you do, dont miss the last train ride back to the zoo from the aquarium. You will have a 3 mile walk back to the zoo! Hope you enjoy!

Only service dogs allowed, no dogs at all allowed in the areas where the lions/tigers/etc are

No. Actually, I can't think of any zoo I've been to across the country that allows pets that aren't service animals. Leave them home, it's a zoo, not a dog park.

Yes, but some area's it restricted due to the types of animals in the area. It's not safe for pets.

10 for adult NM residents

I think

Yes I saw a lot of people with packed lunches.

Is that every day time

You should call the ticket office at the zoo and ask them directly.

Yes but I believe it was under construction.... so they weren't there. Last month when I visited

$12 or $15 I think

No bat plush

Yes 9 to 5

No

Neither but there's other options

Most animals are out. The only ones who might stay in are the apes. The reptile house is heated. The giant tortoises will be off exhibit. All the animals are usually more visible and active with fewer people there, especially the big cats.

$3 for the day

They have wagons for $7 and strollers for $5

We used a family membership from Henry doorly zoo in Nebraska to get half off on tickets. I suggest getting the combo ticket!

They rent them when you walk in

2 and under free

Grounds keepers and animal techs are all around. Find them and let them know with as much detail you can provide. If that doesn't work call the city's 311 number and explain. They can direct the information to the right people.

Most of the time it says that they exclude the special events

10 for adults 5 for kids under 12 (both resident rates)

Yes

No

Non resident is $14.50 Resident is $10.00 They also have yearly passes for 1 $100

Its best to buy for all 3 parks you can walk the zoo very quickly the bio park and the water park are worth going

Yes!! Service dogs are allowed in, however not in the cat area.

Nope.
