Polar Bears
Welcome Toronto Zoo's newest and cutest addition - born October 11, 2011. After months of loving Toronto Zoo staff care, the little cub is now taking visitors at the Tundra Trek exhibit. Also see snow geese, Arctic fox, wolves, reindeer, and a snowy owl.
Gorilla Rainforest Exhibit
Toronto zoo’s family of Western lowland gorillas is thriving. Nassir, born Sept 2009 and seen here with his mother Ngozi, is the latest addition to the family. Ngozi was brought to Toronto to breed with Little Nassir’s father Charles in an effort to support an endangered species.
Cats of the African Savanna
Cheetahs are critically endangered in the wild. The Toronto Zoo, however has managed to successfully breed them — helping to improve the breed's chance of survival.
Cheetahs can reach a maximum short distance speed of 80-112 km/h. Check with zoo staff to see if there are any new babies when you visit.
Watch Snow Leopards at Play
Masterfully adapted to cold arctic conditions, snow leopards have long tails and thick fur. You can find cubs Maya and Kazi who were born June 1, 2007 with their mother Tiga in the Eurasia area of the zoo.
Great Barrier Reef Exhibit
The centerpiece of the new Great Barrier Reef Exhibit is a giant tank filled with 1.000 reef fish such as Bamboo Shark, parrot fish and angel fish. Also new to the zoo are moon jelly fish, Australian sea horse, and live coral reefs.
Just for Kids
The zoo’s discovery area for kids has three areas:
1. Splash Island, an exciting .8 hectare (2 acre) waterplay area, treats children of all ages to rollicking good fun amidst a variety of Canada's wetlands.
2. Kids Zoo is a dynamic, interactive children's wildlife experience geared towards all ages, but especially towards kids nine and under.
3. Waterside Theater hosts family events. Grab a seat in this spectacular outdoor theatre and treat your family to a host of fun-tastic times.

It was a nice experience of enjoying the sightseeing of Toronto by using Toronto CityPass. We visited all five places e.g. ROM, Ontario Science Center, Casa Loma, CN Tower and Toronto Zoo. Really, city pass is very convenient for the enjoyment of various places with the cheapest way which is appreciable!!
Toronto Pass - Well Worth It
posted by Ross on May-15-2012
I used the Toronto City Pass to take in the major sites of Toronto and felt the value and discount received to see the various sites was well worth it. Casa Loma, the CN Tower and the ROM were most certainly highlights. I would highly recommend using the pass if you have a few days in Toronto to see the sights. Ride the Rocket(the TTC) as recommended if you get the chance.

Great value and encouraged the adventure of tackling the transport system to get to all venues. Very well assisted by TTC personnel and the ease of use really good. Well done Toronto for providing such a great package. Visited all venues on the pass and each and every one was a wonderful enriching experience. Thank you. Visiting from Melbourne, Australia.
Fantastic Value!!
posted by Pants on May-13-2012
When it comes to having a couple of kids with you the CityPASS came in handy for value. The PASS saved my wife and I a fair bit, and the ease of going through lines helps when you have impatient kids. We highly recommend the Pass even if you're by yourself or with the family, you can't go wrong with saving money and time.
Toronto CityPASS
posted by MM on May-13-2012
A couple of friends and I stayed in Toronto for four days and the CityPASS was great! We were able to make it to the CN Tower, the ROM, Casa Loma, and the Toronto Zoo; however, we didn't have enough time to go to the Science Centre. Great deal, great way to see the city. Wish the pass included transit passes.
