The Buffalo Zoo

Ideal for families with young children, out-of-town visitors with limited time, and wildlife enthusiasts interested in conservation education. Skip if you expect a massive animal variety or prefer zoos with vast outdoor roaming spaces. Visit on weekdays or Tuesday-Wednesday to avoid crowds and lines. Fall and spring offer the best animal activity; many animals rest indoors during winter. Buy tickets online to skip entry lines. Plan 3-4 hours for a complete visit. The facility is fully handicap accessible.
