We are making many changes due to Covid-19 to protect our visitors, staff and animals.
We ask that you read over these changes before your visit so that you can be prepared.
When you arrive: Please remain distanced when waiting at the gate house for admission. Six foot distances will be marked on the ramps. Our staff member will check you in from behind a glass window for their safety and yours. You will purchase your admission and petting zoo feed at the gate house. Previously we used re-usable tickets for our additional activities - they will no longer be used.
We ask that you bring along a mask or face covering. We ask that you utilize the mask or face covering in areas when you might not be able to maintain 6 foot distancing (ie, gift shop checkout, animal shows).
During your visit we ask that you remember to "Do your part and stay apart". Socially distance at least 6 feet. Our animals are spread out over 14 acres. There is plenty of space to view animals, enjoy the outdoors and distance from other visitors. When moving from habitat to habitat please be patient with other guests as no one wants to rush through their visit. Spending more time at each habitat also allows you to see all the fun behaviors and nuances of each animal.
We will not be running pony rides until further notice. We can not safely social distance the handler of the pony from the rider.
Our petting zoo feed will all be purchased at the gate house. You will pick up your feed from the baby goat area attendant.
Our baby goat area will be available by reservation only. In order to maintain a social distance for the safety of our guests, the baby goat area will be restricted to those with reservations. Reservations will be on the half hour. You can reserve prior to your visit on our website. You can also check availability at the gate house when you arrive.
Feed bottles to our baby goats, hang out and play. Half an hour per group. Socially distanced. Word to the wise the baby goats don't socially distance! Reservation required. $40 per group. Groups defined as up to 4 people. Additional people may be added to group at $5 per person - up to a total of 8 people. Able to be booked online soon! Questions? Call 815-519-4686.
