Animals of the Utica Zoo
Utica Zoo is home to more than 200 animals from around the world! We just recently opened the Bull Reef in June of 2026, which has become the second largest coral reef on the east coast.
As a four season zoo, we do have some animals that thrive during the warmer months, and some others that are actually more active in the winter!
Our Education Department cares for over 55 ambassador animals representing over 35 species, and these animals can be seen at Birthday Parties, on Zoomobiles, and during Educational Classes & Events. Below you can find all 8 of our exciting animal sections that are throughout the zoo!
