For your safety at the zoo, please obey all posted signs and guidelines throughout the zoo.
No Pets
Pets of any kind are not allowed in the zoo area. Also, DO NOT leave pets in your car while you are in the zoo. Service animals like guide dogs are allowed in the zoo. However, they are not permitted in the following areas: the petting zoo, the deer forest, or near the big cat (tigers, lions, cheetahs, etc.) habitats.
Follow the Rules in the Deer Forest
In the deer forest, wait for the deer to come to you. Then try to feel them by gentle touches. Never run after or shout at them as this stresses them out. Animals prefer quiet.
Never Cross Any Fence in the Zoo
Please do not try to touch the animals not in the deer forest or the petting zoo. All animals can bite and their habitats are their homes. This is for the safety of both our visitors and our animals.
Do Not Bring Outside Food for Our Animals
All of our animals' diets include specific foods. Outside food can make them very sick, even if it seems like they could eat it. Feeding the animals is allowed in the petting zoo and the deer forest with food that is provided by the zoo.
Children Must Be Supervised at All Times
Children must be supervised at all times while in all areas of the zoo.
