Holidays at the Ecomuseum

Until January 7th, the Ecomuseum is hosting holiday season activities! The animals are ready for winter! Genie, the Black Bear, and the turtles are currently sleeping for their winter hibernations! They will soon be followed by the raccoons, while all the other animals are enjoying the first snowflakes and the special attention of the Ecomuseum team.


The Ecomuseum is the only zoo exclusively dedicated to Québec wildlife. It welcomes non-releasable animals that cannot return to the wild and provides them with a safe home. Injured, orphaned, or born under human care, the residents of the Ecomuseum Zoo don't have the abilities required to survive in their natural environment.

There are free educational presentations throughout the day during their special holiday period, and each child will leave with a sweet little surprise! A daily ticket for children 3 to 15 years old is $11, and a ticket for adults (16-64) costs $19. Admission for children under 2 is free.


Purchase your tickets in advance. Tickets can be purchased in advance on their website or in person at the admission counter.
