Zoo Wanderlusters

52-acre natural habitat zoo next to the Brazos River, which provided a nice breeze on this very warm/hot day! Unlike many zoos, there is plenty of shade for "all" plus benches to rest, trail markers for runners or walkers, and a playground with picnic area.

Great zoo!!

I was recently there with my 14 year old son and 12 year old daughter and we all thoroughly enjoyed it! It's like a mini Fort Worth zoo. It's perfectly shaded for those hot TX days. The animals were all out and healthy looking, several...More

Great place to take your classroom to enjoy a day of learning in the outdoors. The workers are great if you preset with them a person willing to be your guide and explain the exhibits. If you go online before your trip there are several...More

Lots of fun

This zoo has been a favorite of ours for many years. It’s not so big that the little ones get worn out.
