Budgie Parakeet Encounter Will Be Closing For Season September 5th

Our Budgie Parakeet Encounter has quickly become one of the favorite attractions of our guests. Thank you to everyone who has come to the zoo and enjoyed the Budgie Parakeet Encounter; one of the many opportunities guests have to get up close and personal with the animals.

The Budgie Parakeet Encounter will close for the season on September 5th but you still have a few days to come out to the zoo and enjoy all the animals.

September 6th will begin our daily Fall Park Hours: 9:00 a.m. - 4:30 p.m.

See you soon!

Striped Hyena Baby Grows Up

Can you feel the summer waning? Here in the northwoods of Wisconsin we have noticed a change in the air as well as few of the trees beginning to change.


One of the most telling reminders of how fast our summer has gone is to look at how big all of the zoo babies have gotten over the past few months.


It wasn't that long ago that we were introducing Kya, the Striped Hyena when she was just a baby. Here is a photo of Kya that was taken recently.
