San Diego Zoo Safari Park to showcase ‘Butterfly Jungle’ this spring - FOX 5 San Diego

ESCONDIDO, Calif. (FOX 5/KUSI) — The San Diego Zoo Safari Park is welcoming the spring season with Butterfly Jungle.

The experience allows visitors to feed, learn and be among hundreds of butterflies within the Hidden Jungle enclosure, zoo officials said in a press release on Monday.

Monarch butterflies, which are in danger of vanishing in the Southwest region as their numbers have plummeted by more than 99%, are featured in the exhibit, according to the San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance.

The Spring Safari includes performances from the high-energy dance crew The Bee Team, the musical duo the Bluebirds and the talented juggler Bee Plus. Strawberry-themed food and beverages will be available as well.

Guests interested in photography can participate in the all-new Wildlife Photo Trek by spending one hour inside Butterfly Jungle to photograph the birds and butterflies.

The Butterfly Jungle will not be included with admission. It is open daily from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. on March 16 and goes through May 12.
