New Elephant Habitat Opens at the Honolulu Zoo


Mari and Vaigai, the Honolulu Zoo’s two resident female elephants from India, have a new habitat to call home.  Following a $12 million renovation, the Zoo’s new elephant habitat is 10 times larger than the old, providing more roaming and exercise space, crucial to maintaining the animals’ health.  New trees and plants have been added, along with two 50,000 gallon swimming pools that allow the elephants to splash, play and cool off in the water.  Other improvements are ongoing and there are plans to introduce a third elephant (male) for breeding purposes, so in the future we can look forward to seeing some baby elephants! 

The Honolulu Power Pass includes free admission to the Honolulu Zoo.  Open daily, 9:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. (closed on Christmas Day).
