Our Meerkats are no shy wall flowers and they’ll be happy to welcome you to their home while they get fed some special treats. 

A Close Encounter at Wellington Zoo is more than just meeting an amazing animal close-up. You’re joined by an animal expert who works with the animals you are meeting. They will introduce you to your encounter animals and answer any of your questions about them, and about Meerkats in the wild. They’ll also happily take a photo of you with the Meerkats, so don’t forget your camera! 

You’ll learn how your Close Encounter helps Wellington Zoo in our work to save animals in the wild.  10% of proceeds from all Close Encounters help us save animals in the wild through projects supported by the Wellington Zoo Partners in Conservation Fund. 

You’ll never forget your Meerkat Close Encounter.
