Dallas Zoo

Founded in 1888, the Dallas Zoo was the first zoo ever established in Texas. Located on 95 acres, the Zoo is divided into two major areas. ZooNorth features a wide variety of animals and exhibits, including a children’s zoo, endangered tiger habitat, and a bird and reptile building. The Wilds of Africa is a 25-acre tract featuring the six major African habitats. Within the exhibit, bush, desert, forest, woodland, river and mountain environments allow a variety of birds and mammals to dwell in surroundings that accurately mimic their native habitats.
