Montgomery Zoo maps go digital 

In an effort to reduce paper use, save trees, and reduce litter on the Zoo grounds, we are going digital with our Zoo map. Simply scan the QR codes provided throughout the Zoo, and use your phone to navigate throughout the Zoo and Museum. 

By going digital, this also allows to communicate more up-to-date animal, exhibit, and attraction information. It is a win-win for both our guests and the environment.

Plastic-free packaging and reduction of bags

Our Zoo Gift Shop has done a great job of reducing the amount of plastic that enters our nation's landfills daily.  If you have noticed, all the toy packages no longer have plastic. This a huge win for the environment and for animals throughout the world. 

Also, our Gift Shop has stopped using plastic bags.  They have converted to no-bag policy; however, if you more than $30 guest receive a complimentary cloth bag sporting the Montgomery Zoo logo.  

These are just a few and simple ways we are recycling, reducing, and repurposing items here at the Montgomery Zoo.
