The zoo is a little shocking upon arrival, as it is in a family's large yard, surrounded by home made cages, however my kids aged 8 & 11 had the time of their lives! You get to touch and hold animals such as Emus, Rabbits, Armadillos, Emus, Ferrets, Alligators, Chinchillas and even a skunk to name a few. You are even allowed into a pen and try your best to catch baby chicks, Guinea Pigs and Rabbits (which my kids could not get enough of!). Although this is not your typical "zoo", I guarantee your children (even the parents) will not want to leave. Mine are already asking when we can return. Make a day of it and get passes to the Bonnechere Caves (sometimes available here on Groupon) while you are in the area!

The owners were fabulously accommodating. We made the mistake of going on Monday - the day they are usually closed on. When we explained this to the owners, not only did they open the zoo and let us your, but they also played tour guide. The animals were great, the kids loved it and it was a great summer day trip.

Friendly staff, very hands on tour. Highly recommend especially if you have children.
