Closed Today The Houston Zoo is committed to the health and safety of the animals in our care and has been monitoring the spread of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI), which can cause severe illness and death in many bird species. At this time, our walk-through Savanna Aviary inside of South America’s Pantanal will remain closed until the risk to our animals subsides.
The Savanna Aviary is a large walk-through aviary in South America’s Pantanal. It houses 12 species, including several species of wading birds to a small flock of green oropendolas.
