Owned and operated by Mark Killman. In the 70's, Murray Killman owned and operated Killman's Wildlife Sanctuary. As a natural progression this facility became The Killman Zoo and officially opened to the public on April 1st, 1988. Since opening in 1988, the zoo has grown in size and has acquired many rare species of endangered animals. Killman Zoo is nestled in ru

ral Caledonia only 5 minutes from the scenic Grand River. Our patrons love the natural setting which consists of 7 acres of peaceful winding trails, ponds, and the shade of many trees. The Killman Zoo is truly one of Ontario's best-kept secrets. We have one of the largest collections of Big Cats in Ontario with 5 BIG CAT RUNS. Our spacious two acre run is complete with a pond for our big cats to enjoy.

“Members of the Killman Family are proud to be descendants of the Seneca, Onandaga and Mohawk Tribes of the First Nations.”

The Killman Zoo is an ongoing project and we continue to upgrade and add more animals. Extra features include:
Picnic Tables and Free Parking

We have one of the largest collections of BIG CATS in Ontario.
