As a leader in naturalistic zoological exhibits, the Desert Museum has launched a campaign to create a new Mexican Gray Wolf exhibit on grounds. We are still working towards our fundraising goal of $5M, and need to raise $1.5M more from our community to complete this project. Please join us in making the new Mexican Gray Wolf exhibit possible!

Join us for a live animal presentation on Eurasian Eagle-Owls, featuring our feathered friend Klaus, followed by a screening of the documentary Wild Inside at The Loft Cinema. The film follows Flaco, a captive-born Eurasian Eagle-Owl with no experience surviving in the wild, as he navigates life on his own after escaping the Central Park Zoo.

Cool down at our newest exhibit, Spadefoot Splash, which is now open to the public! Emphasizing that water is life, we invite you to explore this interactive playscape. Relax under the shaded patio, stroll along the new nature trail, learn about our conservation projects in the indoor exhibit area, or play in the gently flowing stream with your little ones.
