Animals

The Pacific Seas Aquarium is filled with underwater delight. Stare at hammerhead sharks, gaze at green sea turtles. With Pacific Coast habitats from cold Northwest to tropical Baja California, you won’t want to leave.

Exotic and mysterious. Lush and green. The Asian Forest Sanctuary immerses you in a five-acre, eight-habitat oasis of waterfalls, streams and bamboo forest, where animals rotate each day. From tigers to tapirs, otter to elephant, there’s always something magical to discover.

Where else in the Northwest can you come nose-to-nose with a polar bear? We’ve created a habitat just like the grassy tundra near Point Hope, Alaska – and filled it with massive muskoxen and powerful polar bear.

At the newly renovated Rocky Shores you can explore a far Northwest world where land and ocean meet. Seabirds nest, sea lions dive, seals splash and otters play.

Lemurs, meerkats, reptiles, goats and amphibians. Bring your littl’uns to get up close to ours!

Hidden in dappled shade, two bright eyes are looking at you. You stare back. Then their owner ducks and turns, loping easily over fallen logs to settle into the sunshine. Our red wolves aren’t just beautiful – they’re part of an award-winning program that has saved this iconic species from extinction.

Howdy, pardners! Welcome to the Wild Wonders Outdoor Theater, featuring an all-star cast of animals and keepers. Stop by the theater at unscheduled times to watch animals and keepers present training demos.

Massive sharks. A Blue Hole with divers-eye-view. Cage dives. A tropical lagoon, a stingray cove. The South Pacific Aquarium is an oasis of warm-water marine beauty, with vibrant fish, inspiring sharks and touchable stingrays. Dive in.
Note: Our South Pacific Aquarium is closed for restoration and repair and will reopen in 2023. Please visit our new Pacific Seas Aquarium to see ocean animals and experience ocean awe and wonder.  

Step into a world of lime, aqua and neon yellow, a world of feathers and chirps and excitement! At Budgie Buddies you don’t just get to meet friendly Aussie birds, you can feed them too with a special seed stick. Opening May 7.
