Company Profile
Reid Park Zoo
Company Overview
Reid Park Zoo’s mission is “to encourage commitment to the conservation of biological diversity and to provide educational and fun experiences for visitors of all ages.”
Our future is brighter than ever before! We are excited about our 10-year master plan that will mean bigger spaces and great experiences that make for smiling faces. Our zoo will be transformed into one of the best in the nation — and even more of a national leader in animal care and conservation.
Visitors will be transported around the world as we expand into Asia with thematic habitats, an adventurous tree-top playground, and more opportunities to get up close to some of their favorite animals. They’ll explore through the winding paths of Africa to see the two-story African Safari Lodge, have a once in a lifetime experience during a rhino encounter, and enjoy the underwater hippo viewing area and so much more! Join us to create more smiling faces!
Company History
The Zoo, founded in 1965 with a collection of birds, prairie dogs, farm animals, and a few squirrel monkeys, has expanded to a 24-acre campus that houses hundreds of animals in naturalistic exhibits and annually hosts more than 500,000 visitors. Reid Park Zoo is accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA).
