ABout Plains

A slice of Africa is recreated in Indianapolis in the expansive Plains exhibit.

When you walk into the large savannah, surrounded by tall grasses and trees on all sides, you’ll feel like you’re on safari in the bush as you watch a variety of African animals graze. The large exhibit spaces have been designed to provide guests — and animals — with multiple areas where they can watch these beautiful creatures.

Plus, get up close and personal with the smaller side of African wildlife at our new Wild Encounter station!
