Small Mammal House
4.8 (248)attraction
Watch tunneling naked mole-rats, sand cats, and dozens of other small species in lively, puzzle-filled habitats.
Description






Enclosures inside mimic natural settings, including mixed-species exhibits where different animals share quarters and interact as they would in the wild. Golden lion tamarins jump between trees, while kong toys and enrichment items encourage animals to exercise their brains and bodies. Outside, an adjacent wooden boardwalk leads past Bennett’s wallabies, continuing around the back of the building to view white-nosed coatis and tamarins.
