omaha zoo

This post is inspired by a recent visit to the Omaha Zoo, which has a sizable fruit bat colony in their Lied Jungle. The catch: There's no barrier between the bats and the guests. At all. They can swoop right overhead; could theoretically touch you. I have two questions. 1 - Are there any...

Got to visit the zoo for the first time in 2025 today and while a short visit, one with a couple of interesting tidbits. Really only visited Lied Jungle, Kingdoms of Night, and Orangutan Forest. Main visit was for Member Appreciation Day with Free Popcorn for the Giant Screen Theater which my...

I am making a trip to Omaha zoo in upcoming weeks. I really hope to see the blue monkey, potto, aye-aye and brush tailed porcupine. I would like any advice on how to male that happen. Any and all tips or advice would be appreciated. I also plan on seeing other zoos in the area if time allows so...

apologies if this is the wrong subforum. I had an absolutely magical experience with this fella today and want to identify exactly who it was. This is unfortunately the only angle of photo I got with him. My friend and I think it’s Timmy? But it’s hard to tell. I’m naming a stuffed animal after...

Hi, my name is Mike. I stumbled across the website looking for maps of the Omaha zoo. Obviously being from Nebraska, I'm rather fond of the Omaha Zoo. I wasn't searching for maps because I don't know how to get around the zoo, but I've built a website around the zoo that is kind of like...

Hey guys I took this back in August of 2022, at Omaha Henry Doorly Zoo, and I am unsure of what species, does anyone know what species this lizard is? Thanks!

One of my fav photos I took during my trip to Omaha Zoo last August in 2019.

Hey guys. Couldn't think of a creative title that wasn't too long but I have been researching for weeks now on ALL the species Omaha Zoo currently holds. Focusing only on Mammals for right now, I found lots of photographs or mentions in forums and media posts on this site, on national geographic...

Hey y'all so on my previous thread I wanted to know all the mammals Omaha Zoo currently has, but then I decide to redo the list especially after I found out that this website called Global Species had a list of animals at the Omaha Zoo. But when I went through that list I notice some aniimals...

Okay so I am writing down all the mammals omaha zoo has currently. I been on their website a million times and there is not a animal page, yes there is a exhibit page but the exhibit doesn't list most just gives a generalization of the species that are at the zoo. So I decide to write down the...
