COVID-19 Information

At Lindsay, the health and safety of our guests, our staff and our volunteers comes first. That’s why we have taken steps to ensure our guests, including children and older adults, have a fun and safe experience during their visit.

Lindsay Wildlife Experience requires that all guests age 12 and older present proof of vaccination against COVID-19 before entering our Exhibit Hall and Wildlife Rehabilitation Hospital. 

This requirement applies to our indoor facilities only; guests ages 12 and older who choose not to provide proof of vaccination can still enjoy our outdoor programs, which are free with paid admission. All children age 11 and under are exempt from any proof of vaccination requirement, and proof of a negative COVID-19 test is not required.

Planning A Visit

We ask that all visitors age 12 and older present one of the following forms of proof of vaccination when arriving at our facilities:

  • Original print or digital copy of a CDC vaccination record card
  • Digital State of California COVID-19 vaccination record.

Guests age 12 and older who are unable to supply proof of vaccination will not be admitted into our facilities except for those who cannot receive a vaccine because of medical or religious reasons. These exempted guests are required to show proof of a negative COVID-19 test result from a test taken within 72 hours of a planned visit to Lindsay Wildlife Experience. We will accept only negative COVID-19 test results from a PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) rapid or regular COVID-19 test.

Refunds and Cancellations

We understand that some guests may no longer be able to attend an event, program or class they have previously registered for due to this new policy. To receive a refund or to cancel advance reservations to Exhibit Hall or an outdoor program, please contact [email protected]. For educational programs, please contact Erin Woods, Wildlife Programs Apprentice, at [email protected].

Another Layer of Safety

In addition to requiring proof of vaccination for all vaccine-eligible visitors and masking for all guests age 2 and over, Lindsay Wildlife Experience has implemented another layer of safety for its guests by requiring that all staff and volunteers be fully vaccinated against COVID-19. Our goal is to create the safest environment possible for our guests, our staff and volunteers, and wildlife.
