Dive into Legend: Mythical Ocean Creatures Emerge at Edmonton Valley Zoo!

Prepare for an extraordinary journey where myth meets reality, as the Edmonton Valley Zoo unveils its captivating new travelling exhibition: 'Creatures of the Ancient Seas.' From May 18 to October 13, 2024, visitors are invited to explore a mesmerizing world populated by 20 colossal animatronic creatures, bringing to life the legendary beasts that have captivated imaginations for centuries.

This immersive exhibition plunges guests into the depths of folklore and ancient marine biology, featuring mythical giants like the infamous Kraken, the colossal Leviathan, and the prehistoric terror of the Megalodon.

Each animatronic marvel is meticulously crafted, offering a thrilling glimpse into the fantastical beings that once (or perhaps still) roamed the uncharted waters of our planet.

But 'Creatures of the Ancient Seas' is more than just a spectacle of fantasy. It cleverly intertwines these legendary tales with crucial educational messages about ocean conservation and the incredible, real-life extinct creatures that once dominated our planet's oceans.

The exhibition aims to spark curiosity, encouraging both young and old to learn about the importance of protecting our marine environments and understanding the delicate balance of aquatic ecosystems.

Beyond the awe-inspiring animatronics, the exhibition features interactive elements designed to engage and educate.

Guests can delve into a touch pond, offering a tactile connection to marine life, or become paleontologists for a day at a fossil digging site, uncovering the remnants of ancient creatures. These hands-on experiences enhance the learning journey, making complex topics accessible and exciting.

This unique blend of entertainment and education offers a perfect outing for families, students, and anyone with a fascination for the mysteries of the deep.

The 'Creatures of the Ancient Seas' exhibition is included with regular zoo admission, providing exceptional value and a full day of exploration alongside the zoo's beloved animal inhabitants.

Following the tremendous success of its previous dinosaur-themed exhibition, the Edmonton Valley Zoo continues its tradition of bringing world-class, engaging experiences to the community.
