Zoo Miami To Reopen Oct. 14 For The First Time Following Irma

Zoo Miami has announced it will officially reopen to the public on Oct. 14, after being closed for more than a month in the wake of Hurricane Irma.

The zoo is celebrating its reopening by offering guests 50 percent off general admission on Oct. 14 and 15. The first 1,000 visitors each day will also receive a free pair of Zoo Miami sunglasses.

The zoo closed Sept. 7 in preparation for the storm.

Damage were mostly limited to fallen trees, fencing and landscaping, according to employees. 

Most of the animals rode out the storm with no issues, although there were several birds and fish that died because of stress.
