"My Family went and had the best time. It is a small zoo but it is clean and the animals are well cared for, you can tell they are loved. We spent about 1.5 hours in the zoo and were able to feed the animals in the petting zoo, hold a baby alligator, feed the baby alligators and go in the parakeet room. We did go over spring break so the alligators were inside due to the cold, they were pretty inactive and they were not doing the feeding shows. Hopefully we can come back someday to see the feeding shows but it was a great experience."
"Lemurs, Parakeets, Wolves.. Oh my!! What a cool experience, going into the parakeet feeding room was a delight! Holding and feeding the baby gators was something my kids will remember forever. One little gator had scoliosis, which was bizarre but he is living his best life now in a protected environment. The staff was great to educate and spend time entertaining each guest. My kids enjoyed feeding the farm animals and petting them. I am grateful we took the time to visit this attraction."
"My family and I love going here. We have been 3 times in a year. So much better then the zoo. Would recommend to anyone with children. Amazing employees. Can't wait to go back."
"Not a good but also not a horrible experience.I am left a bit sad for the animals. The employees I talked to were kind. The alligator handler was the most educated and interested out of everyone. The shop is kind of cute. The wolves have no room to do anything. Their space is smaller than my yard. They deserve better! Please find a more ideal location for these animals! Honestly I don’t really recommend. I did like petting the goats and being able to hold a baby alligator though so that was probably the nicest part of this visit."
"Cool place with tons of animals! Nice to get up close and personal with not only gators but tortoises, birds, bunnies, goats, emus, donkeys, ducks, wolves, raccoons, lemurs, and more! The guy (pictured by the alligators) was a very lively and informative entertainer! He was very inviting and a wealth of information. Clearly loves what he does and deserves a raise! Definitely recommend this place for all ages, and certainly kids!! My toddler was very intrigued. And it’s fairly small so not a big time commitment either. Your ticket price includes lettuce and bread for the bunnies and goats. Alligator food is only $5 more. Well worth it!"
