• To mitigate the spread of COVID-19, the lodges, waterfront, NatureZone, and DTE Energy Raptor Centers will remain CLOSED until further notice.
• No hand washing stations are provided. Please carry hand sanitizer or sanitizing wipes containing at least 60% alcohol, as well as trash bags to carry out used wipes. Our public restrooms will be open and sanitized frequently.
• For the safety of staff and guests, we require that the CDC recommended six foot social distancing protocol MUST be followed by all guests. Due to the gravity of this situation, social distancing will be strictly enforced.
• Guests are required to wear masks when indoors at all times, and outdoors when 6ft social distancing is not possible.
• As always, our wild animal residents are on strict diets, and any outside food can make them VERY sick and even cause death. Please help keep our critters happy and healthy by holding onto your snacks. DO NOT feed the wildlife. Further, please do not cross any barriers and/or attempt to touch any of our wildlife ambassadors. Doing so may lead to injury for you or the creature. Your furry and feathery friends thank you!
SEE YOU SOON!
