Congratulations!!

Please join us in celebrating our newest accredited facility: Ochsner Park Zoo ! 🎉🐻

Located in Baraboo, Wisconsin, Ochsner Park Zoo has been connecting the community with wildlife for nearly 100 years. Since opening in 1926, the zoo has grown from its beginnings with two bear cubs and two deer fawns to a diverse collection of more than 30 species.

Ochsner Park Zoo is committed to providing a safe and engaging home for animals, with many of its residents being rehabilitated wildlife or animals rescued from the exotic pet trade. Through educational talks, keeper chats, enrichment programs, and meaningful animal experiences, the zoo creates opportunities for visitors of all ages to learn about and appreciate wildlife.

We’re proud to celebrate Ochsner Park Zoo for its dedication to providing exceptional animal care, inspiring learning, and creating opportunities for its community to connect with wildlife.

Please join us in welcoming Ochsner Park Zoo to the ZAA-accredited community! 🎉
