Kansas families and wildlife enthusiasts are invited to embark on an unforgettable statewide zoo adventure with the launch of the new KaZOO Wild Adventure Passport program — a collaborative initiative among the seven Association of Zoos & Aquariums (AZA) accredited zoos in Kansas.

The KaZOO Wild Adventure Passport program invites guests to explore all seven participating Kansas zoos while celebrating wildlife conservation, education, and family fun statewide.

The program officially runs through September 7, 2026.

Participating AZA-accredited Kansas zoos include:

· David Traylor Zoo – Emporia

· Hutchinson Zoo – Hutchinson

· Lee Richardson Zoo – Garden City

· Rolling Hills Zoo – Salina

· Sedgwick County Zoo – Wichita

· Sunset Zoo – Manhattan

· Topeka Zoo & Conservation Center – Topeka

Participants can download a KaZOO Wild Adventure Passport from the website of any participating zoo. Guests ages 3 and older can receive one passport per person and collect a special passport stamp and gift at each zoo they visit.

Once all seven zoo stamps have been collected, participants may submit their completed passport to be entered into the KaZOO Wild Adventure Grand Prize Drawing.

Three grand prize winners will be selected on September 14, 2026, with each winner receiving a special animal encounter experience at the participating KaZOO zoo of their choice.

Zoo members can make their adventure even more rewarding. When purchasing a membership at any participating AZA-accredited Kansas zoo, members will receive reciprocal admission discounts at every other participating AZA Kansas zoo.

The KaZOO Wild Adventure Passport not only promotes family exploration and tourism across Kansas, but also highlights the important conservation work taking place at accredited zoos throughout the state.
