💬 What Visitors Say
- Plan your visit for 1-2 hours and arrive early in the morning to avoid extreme heat, as the park has minimal shade and can become uncomfortably hot during midday visits.
- The parakeet sanctuary is the most unique experience at the park—make it a priority. You walk into their domain through a second door, which creates an immersive interaction unlike the other exhibits.
- The goat pen can be overwhelming for children under 5 when goats are hungry and swarm the gate area—supervise very closely or consider skipping it for toddlers. The kangaroo feeding area is more manageable for young children and highly recommended by visitors.
- Use a flat hand when feeding most animals. Feed hogs and large birds on the ground instead. Watch out for aggressive pecking from large birds and keep belongings away from goats, which may chew on clothing and personal items.
- If you live nearby, a seasonal pass offers excellent value—visitors report it pays for itself quickly with multiple visits. For one-time visits, bring a picnic lunch to reduce expenses, as admission ($9-$11 per person) plus purchased feed bags and snacks can add up quickly.
