June marks National Indigenous History Month, and the Toronto Zoo joins in recognizing the rich history, heritage, resilience, and diversity of First Nations, Inuit, and Metis People across Turtle Island.
In commemoration of National Indigenous History Month, the Toronto Zoo is extending complimentary admission to all Indigenous Peoples. The Zoo says for entry proceed directly to the Zoo’s admission gates as no online ticket purchase is required.
“As we honour National Indigenous History Month here at your Toronto Zoo, we acknowledge the land we are on is the traditional territory of many nations including the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and the Wendat peoples, and is now home to many diverse First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples,” states the Toronto Zoo website. “We also acknowledge that Toronto is covered by Treaty 13 with the Mississaugas of the Credit and the Williams Treaty signed with multiple Mississaugas and Chippewa bands.”
