While we're experiencing a September heat wave, our animals, like Sassy here, are staying cool! 💦🐕 If you're looking for an opportunity to cool off, learn about wildlife, and enjoy the holiday weekend, stop into the Virginia Zoo this weekend! We are open every day, including Labor Day, from 9:30am - 4pm.
