Treetop Adventure closed in 2023. While we enjoyed 6 years of climbing, crawling, zipping, and swinging through the treetops at the Bronx Zoo with you, the time has come to say goodbye to this attraction.

The Bronx Zoo has lots of wild adventures to explore! If you are looking for something beyond the standard daytime zoo visit, take a look at our Education programs and camps, and our Wild Encounters up-close animal experiences and cart tours.

And remember - You can still climb and explore with us at Nature Trek, where kids 3 & up can get a bird’s eye view of the park! Navigate across bridges and over balancing beams, and weave between obstacles for a safe and challenging adventure. Nature Trek is a Star Attraction and included with our premium zoo ticket as well as most Membership levels.

$\"Manus$ \nManus Green Tree Snail\nActual size: 1.5 inches\nThese snails are found only on Manus Island, which is just 60 miles long. They are also known as emerald green snails.

$\"Morpho$ \nMorpho Butterfly\nActual size: 3 inches\nThe blue wings of morpho butterflies don’t contain any blue pigments. Their wings are covered with tiny, ridged scales that reflect blue light, making them look blue!

$\"Regal$ \nRegal Sunbird\nActual size: 4.75 inches\nThe regal sunbird is native to the forests of the Albertine Rift in Africa, including Nyungwe forest in Rwanda, which we have been protecting since 1987.

$\"Golden$ \nGolden-tailed Sapphire\nActual size: 3.75 inches\nThis hummingbird lives in the northwest part of South America and is commonly seen near forest edges.

$\"Panamanian$ \nPanamanian Golden Frog\nActual size: about 2 inches\nPanamanian golden frogs are classified as Extinct in the Wild due to chytrid fungus. Fortunately, zoo populations are robust, and we hope to return them to the wild once the chytrid fungus can be eliminated from their native habitat.

$\"Spotted$ \nSpotted Turtle\nActual size: 3-4 inches\nHatchling spotted turtles usually have one spot per plate (scute) on their shell. As they get older, they may gain or lose spots.

$\"Kihansi$ \nKihansi Spray Toad\nActual size: up to 1 inch\nThe Kihansi spray toad was the first amphibian to be declared Extinct in the Wild and successfully reintroduced thanks to the efforts of the Bronx and Toledo Zoos.

$\"Madagascan$ \nMadagascan Sunset Moth\nActual size: 3 inches\nThe Madagascan sunset moth lives only on the island of Madagascar and is active during the day.

$\"Mimic$ \nMimic Poison Frog\nActual size: .75 inch\nMimic poison frogs get their name because this species has several morphs, or color patterns, which look like other poison frog species.

$\"Red-banded$ \nRed-banded Poison Frog\nActual size: 1.25 inches\nPoison frogs get their toxins from the insects they eat. We work to protect the Critically Endangered red-banded poison frog in its native habitat in western Colombia.

$\"Scarlet$ \nScarlet Dwarf\nActual size: .6 inch\nThe scarlet dwarf is the world’s smallest dragonfly, with a wingspan of less than an inch.

$\"Pygmy$ \nPygmy Wisp\nActual size: .8 inch\nThe pygmy wisp is a type of damselfly. Males have green heads, while females can have green or red heads.

The Italian Fountain, also known as the Rockefeller Fountain, is carved from light-colored limestone and granite. It was designed of sculptor Biagio Catella in Como, Italy, in 1872. After less than 20 years on site in the Piazza Cavour, the fountain was dismantled and put into storage in the Como City Hall. Many years later, in 1902, William Rockefeller bought the fountain and gave it to the Bronx Zoo. Laying the groundwork for the fountain at the zoo took about eight years, and then it was finally moved from its original location on Astor Court to its present position in the center of the Bronx Zoo’s Rainey Gate Concourse in 1910. It was declared a landmark in1968.
