COVID-19 Safety

Positive Changes for everyone

Please postpone your visit to the Zoo if you are feeling unwell, have a fever or any COVID-19 related symptoms.

We will continue to follow all Washington State and King Co. public health guidelines.
For the latest information on the coronavirus and best practices to stay safe please visit www.kingcounty.gov/depts/health.

We've taken steps to ensure everyone stays healthy

  • Face coverings are now required for ages 5 and up.
  • Even though we already had them, we've added even more hand sanitizing stations.
  • You'll find signage all over the zoo promoting excellent hygiene.
  • Zookeepers love to clean! We've increased the frequency of daily cleaning and disinfecting.
  • Most paths are now one-way. This will keep everyone headed down the same path and increase our capability for social distancing!
  • We love to learn! That means our staff has ongoing education on COVID related best practices which ensure's we're all working as a team to promote your health.
  • We've got protocols in place to limit and monitor attendance to the Zoo. Don't worry, we still have room for you!
  • We're working to limit our interaction as much as we can. With online admission purchases, enjoy a contactless zoo entry.
