CLICK HERE to see the latest video of the white lion cubs interacting with dad, Fintan.   Our white lion cubs continue to grow and have slowly been introduced to dad, Fintan. Every weekday, keepers are working on integrating the pride with Fintan and the cubs. Each cub is now over 30lbs and as you can see, they are still very active, playful and rambunctious! Don't forget to visit mom, Makali, and the four cubs every Saturday and Sunday from 11:00am to 2:00pm, weather permitting.            FIRST COMES LOVE Adult Program (Adults ages 19 and up) Saturday, February 13 OR Sunday, February 14 6:30 pm – 9:00 pm One of life's greatest gifts is the gift of a child and one of the most important and honourable jobs around!

Da Mao invites you to Piñata’s for Pandas!* The Toronto Zoo is always looking for creative animal enrichment that connects guests and animals in a relatable way.

The giant pandas have been enjoying this special enrichment, made just for them by their keeping staff, since arriving at the Toronto Zoo in 2013. Whether it's for Valentine's Day, Canada Day or Halloween, Canada's only giant panda pair enjoy the fun of getting to some of their favourite treats in some of the most creative designs. *Subject to change without notice **Note, Da Mao will be the only giant panda receiving a pinata on this date.                          CURRENT ZOO HOURS: 9:30am - 4:30pm, daily    Last admission one hour before closing.
