At the Omaha Zoo, education is where curiosity meets purpose. Through immersive camps, behind-the-scenes tours, Zoo Schools, and interactive virtual programs, learners of all ages connect with animals, nature, and each other in meaningful ways. Whether exploring ocean ecosystems or observing animal behavior up close, every experience invites discovery and encourages a shared commitment to shaping a better future for all life.
The Robert B. Daugherty Education Center serves as the heart of our year-round programs. This innovative space welcomes more than 10,000 learners each year, sparking curiosity, joy, and empathy while nurturing a lifelong connection to the natural world. It is where learning takes root, where community comes together, and where purpose begins to grow.
