Animal Training Experience

Join our animal care team to learn how we improve the wellbeing of our animals through positive reinforcement training! In this up-close experience, you will watch a training session, talk to our team about how and why we train our animals, and then put your skills to the test by participating in a training session with one of our ambassador animals. 

This experience is in an area not accessible to wheelchairs or strollers. You may be handling a variety of food items including fruits, vegetables, grains, or meats. 

*Museum Admission is NOT included in this experience

Open to ages 6+

Heads Up!

The Virginia Living Museum will open at 11AM to the public today to allow staff to get operations up and running after extensive power loss last night.

This will NOT interfere with regular summer camp operations, camp will begin at 9AM. 

Thank you for your patience!

Wild Explorations

Heads Up! The Changing Exhibit Gallery, where our Wild Explorations exhibit lives, will close at 3PM today in preparation for an after hours event!
