Camels

Every day is hump day with our gorgeously goofy herd

Join us for an exclusive meet and greet with our growing Bactrian camel herd—you could meet our adorable youngsters, Hagrid and Sprout. With this special and intimate experience, you'll have the opportunity to "buy out" a camel encounter for up to four members of your personal pod. You'll get to meet a camel (or two), along with the knowledgeable animal care experts who keep these fascinating desert dwellers happy and healthy.
