Zoo Memberships

Give the gift of a Zoo Membership!

We highly recommend purchasing a gift card in the amount of the membership and giving the gift card as the gift. This will ensure that the membership information on the account is accurate, and will allow the recipient to redeem the gift card for a Zoo membership whenever they choose and that action will start the year long membership. However, if you give the actual membership it will expire one year from the purchase date even if it is not given to the member right away and the member information will not be added accurately. 

Zoo Membership Gift Cards can be purchased HERE. They can also be purchased by calling the Zoo at 402.475.6741 ext. 0 Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. - 5 p.m. or at the Zoo, open daily 10 a.m. - 5 p.m.
