The San Diego Zoo and Safari Park<\/span><\/a> have titled their reopening “Roaring Back” as the 103-year-old organization returns from the first major closure in its history.<\/span><\/p>\n

The public reopening will take place on June 20 at 9 a.m. and their hours will be from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. They are allowing only half capacity in the park with a first-come, first-serve system to allow people in the park. Once the limit is reached, guests will be allowed in as other guests leave, and re-entry into the parks will not be permitted for the time being.<\/span><\/p>\n

Parking will also be limited, but the $15 general parking fee at the Safari Park will be waived until further notice.<\/span><\/p>\n

The parks are eager to reopen as “guests will once again be able to experience wildlife with their families, stroll among diverse habitats, and take part in fun, educational activities that bring us closer to the natural world.”<\/span><\/p>\n
