Spend the day surrounding yourself with animal life, immersing yourself in the zoo world, then spend the night in the comfortable Safari Lodge! Early reservations recommended... book your stay at the zoo today!

As the day ends and it begins to steal towards darkness, Jungle Cat World comes to life! The zoo, in twilight, is yours to explore as the nocturnal animals become suddenly active. Sounds seem to become clearer and sharper, your eyes more alert. You watch... but you are also being watched - by the feline hunter. Hear the deep roar of the Lion, as the King renews his nightly reign upon his Kingdom. Soon he is joined by the ghostly scream of the Cougars. Howl into the night listening for the response from the Wolves and Coyotes.

When you finally drift into relaxing sleep, feel the energy and raw power of the living night. As the new day is born, wake to experience the new order of life in the morning light - when the nights' prey become more confident, and the nights' hunters now rest. Enjoy your complimentary breakfast from the balcony, overlooking the zoo with a panoramic view of the countryside and Lake Ontario. For something truly extraordinary, arrange to meet the Zookeepers whom will introduce you to some of the young animals in the zoo for a photo opportunity- a wonderful memento of your night in the Safari Lodge!
