Came by for a field trip and had Kelsi as our tour guide. She was absolutely amazing and engaging with the children. Gave facts on their age level and really helped us enjoy and see all the animals. This is a great place to take the kiddos to learn about some unique animals

Excellent place for kids and family. Very friendly staff, very well maintained animals. You get real close interaction with the animals, much better than at regular zoos. Really cool place. We loved the White Tiger and Bears watching them up close. Watching feeding them. Feeding Camels and mini cows, Llamas, Mini donkeys is cool for kids.

Closed This Holiday Weekend

We will be closed this weekend to focus on the care of our animals. Thank you to all of our guests and supporters that have gifted the animals enrichment. Stay tuned to see them opening their gifts! 
 
We can’t wait to see you and your family next weekend when the weather will be nice and sunny!!
