About
Zoo Day is a free companion app for planning a day at the zoo. Find zoos near you, see which animals live there, and learn about every animal before you go.
FIND A ZOO

• See each zoo's address, distance, phone number, and opening hours where listed
• Read a short overview of the zoo and the year it opened
• Open the zoo's official website or get directions in Google Maps with one tap
SEE THE ANIMALS AT EACH ZOO

GOOD TO KNOW
Zoo Day is an independent app and is not affiliated with any zoo. Zoo details come from OpenStreetMap, Wikidata, and Wikipedia, and animal sightings and facts from iNaturalist, so some information may be missing or out of date. Please check hours and admission on the zoo's official website before you visit.
Your location is used only to search for nearby zoos. Zoo Day does not require an account and does not store your location.
Photos are credited in the app to their photographers under Creative Commons licenses.
