At Zooperbowl, animals normally displayed during this time of year will be on exhibit as well as animals in the indoor Unseen New World exhibit. Many of the Zoo’s animal collection is acclimated to Nashville’s climate except in extreme weather conditions, and some species (cougars, Bengal tigers, zebra, eland, red panda and Eurasian lynx) are often more active during cooler months. Weather permittin­­g, rides on the Zoo’s Wild Animal Carousel and Wilderness Express Train will be offered for an additional fee. The Zoo’s gift shop, café and Jungle Gym playground will also be open during Zooperbowl.
