Discover the world year-round at the Little Rock Zoo! It all began in 1926 with a circus bear and timber wolf. Today, the Little Rock Zoo is home to over 725 of the world's most exotic animals. Experience the majesty of giraffes, elephants, and rhinos. Marvel at the strength and beauty of lions, tigers, and jaguars. Take a stroll and catch a glimpse of chimpanzees, orangutans, and gorillas. Or slither around to explore the snakes, amphibians and alligators. If you need a break from the action, stop in the Safari Terrace Cafe for a bite to eat. Or take a relaxing and scenic ride on the train. Don't forget to visit the Children's Farm, where you can get up close to sheep, goats, and more. With new animal exhibits, special events, and educational programs, the Zoo provides an ever-changing and recreational experience for children of all ages.
