Belize Zoo

What started off as a small abode for animals starring in documentaries about tropical forests in 1983, has grown to be one of the most visited places in Belize. The Belize Zoo and Tropical Education Center has only gotten better as time went by, now accommodating over 150 animals. Some orphaned or donated by zoological institutions around the world, others rescued or born at the zoo.

This Education Center welcomes students, parents, teachers, tourists every year and host many educational programs such as summer camps and Student Career Training. Trip Advisor has awarded the Certificate of Excellence for two consecutive years: 2013 and 2014.

The Zoo boasts over 45 different species of animals, native to Belize. Some of the animals you will find at the zoo are Harpy Eagles, Tapirs, Jaguars, Spider Monkeys, White-Tailed Deers, Coatimundis, Peccaries, the mighty Jabiru Stork, Parrots, Toucans, Scarlet Macaws, Crocodiles and the Boa Constrictor among others.
