The Incredibly Unique Wildlife Experience That You Can Have Right Here In Utah
You get to visit more than 800 animals when you visit Utah’s Hogle Zoo, but you usually have to view them from a distance. Here’s a chance to get up close and personal with some of the zoo’s most beloved animals. Take a look!
We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life. While we continue to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, please take proper precautions or add them to your bucket list to see at a later date. If you know of a local business that could use some extra support during these times, please nominate them here: onlyinyourstate.com/nominate







If you're interested in a longer giraffe encounter, consider the Giraffe VIP Experience. You'll accompany a keeper to the Giraffe VIP Observation Tower, where you can observe the giraffes close-up. The keeper will answer your questions about giraffes, and you'll learn all about the training and conservation efforts with giraffes at the zoo. You'll also get a chance to feed the giraffes a snack. This animal encounter is offered on Fridays and Saturdays at 10 a.m., and is available to groups of up to five guests.
Learn more about the giraffe feedings and Giraffe VIP Experience at Utah’s Hogle Zoo’s website, and follow the latest happenings on the zoo’s Facebook page.
If you love animals, you might want to visit Wheeler Farm – it’s perfect for a family day trip!
