Rules and Regulations

To help protect our animals, guests, staff, and the Zoo, ZOO has a number of rules that all visitors must follow.

Therefore, it is not permitted to:

• Feed or disturb the animals

• Bring mopeds, bicycles, roller skates, skateboards, scooters, balloons, large flags, banners, balls, sledges, or similar items

• Bring dogs or other pets

• Damage plants or landscaped areas

• Litter or collect refundable bottles and cans

• Display threatening or aggressive behaviour

• Disturb other guests

• Create excessive noise using radios, musical instruments, megaphones, or similar devices

• Carry out campaigning or political propaganda

• Sell goods or distribute printed materials

• Bring large quantities of beer, wine, or spirits

• Behave in an intoxicated manner

• Smoke outside designated smoking areas – this also applies to e-cigarettes

• Use open flames or barbecues

• Hold commercial events in ZOO without prior agreement

• Be in the Zoo without clothing or footwear

• Relieve yourself anywhere other than the designated toilet facilities

• Please also note that entry to and stay in ZOO is at your own risk.

Visitors may be asked to present the contents of their bags and pockets, as well as valid ID, to zoo staff upon request. Misuse of a Zoo Card may result in the card being blocked. Guests must always follow the instructions of zoo staff, and violations of these rules may result in removal from the Zoo.
