Welcome to the Zoo in Forest Park and Education Center
The mission of the Forest Park Zoological Society is to promote public awareness and appreciation for indigenous and exotic animals, and to provide educational programming for all ages that encourages understanding and respect for the natural environment. The animal collections and gardens enhance our perception of the natural world, and emphasize the importance of bio-diversity.
The Zoo is committed to inspiring conservation of our natural resources and protection for threatened and endangered species. The Forest Park Zoological Society will continue to maintain the highest standard of animal care and facility maintenance, and promote comprehensive educational programming opportunities for its members and the regional community.
Closed for the Season
With the early snowstorm and the amount of damage sustained to the Park and Zoo the closing date earlier is necessaary. The damage to the tree's has made it unsafe to be around them with limbs still hanging in the tree tops.We look forward to your support throughout the winter and hope to see you in the Spring.
