As Dubai Safari Park launched its sixth season on October 1, children now have the opportunity to become junior rangers for the entire season. Priced at Dh550, the season pass enables these young rangers to undertake six missions centered around animal care, as detailed in their ranger journals. The program includes intimate animal encounters, guided Safari tours, workshops, and presentations. Junior rangers who successfully complete the program will be entered into a grand raffle at the end of the season, with a chance to win a Kenyan safari adventure.
In addition to the junior ranger program, children can engage with wildlife through various workshops and activities. The Young Explorer Workshop, held every Saturday, offers kids the chance to address hands-on conservation challenges under the guidance of animal specialists. The park also provides exclusive school programs, such as “Learn in the Wild,” where students can explore topics like animal welfare, conservation, and environmental protection.
Dubai Safari Park also offers over 14 animal encounters, featuring lemurs, macaws, rhinos, elephants, and more, suitable for guests of all ages. Visitors can participate in daily wildlife talks led by experts, delve into conservation efforts through guided safari tours in the Explorer Village and Arabian Desert Safari, and enjoy three live presentations, including the newly introduced “Echoes of the Wild,” showcasing playful animals like coatis, raccoons, and otters.
Under the theme “Conservation for the Planet,” the park's edutainment program aims to educate visitors of all ages about pressing wildlife issues, such as habitat destruction, climate change, and poaching.
