The Exotic Resort Zoo Are you looking for your own SAFARI adventure? We’re right here!! Centrally located to ATX & SATX! 🦒 This is the place for you!
(5912)

When visiting us, you'll embark on an adventure through 137 sprawling wooded acres where 700+ exotic animals from 50 different species roam freely! We have a few different options for our daily visitors:

(1) Drive your OWN car through the park to visit the animals. Keep in mind that we are not responsible for damages to the vehicle from hooves, antlers or horns. That's just part of the FUN! * Onl

ine tickets required for Drive-Thru. *

(2) For a more unique and interactive experience, take a ride on the wild side on one of our Guided Tours! This is an open air tractor-trailer ride where the animals come from ALL directions. With a one-of-a-kind Tour Guide at your disposal, you’ll learn all about our babies and how we extend and preserve exotic wildlife here in Texas. * No reservations or online tickets needed for Guided Tour. *

We are a family-owned and operated business. So, it is each of YOU that keep us here and our animals taken care of. We can't wait to see you, whether it be a daily visit or an extended stay in one of our cabins.

Boop, boop from the boopiest snoot! 🦓

How many times does a gal have to say “Don’t hand feed the zebras?” — asking for a friend. 🤣

Zebra have 44 teeth in total — top AND bottom. This means that when they bite, you feel it! And, because they are grazers, they don’t bite down and instantly release. They bite and pull, as if they are pulling grass from the ground. 🌾🌾🌾

So, believe us when we say “Don’t hand feed the zebras”. 😅

Our are definitely the STAR of the show! ⭐️

Dromedary Camels, or Arabian Camels, have only one hump that is jam-packed with nutrients and fat stores. In fact, their hump can weigh up to 80lbs alone! A malnourished camel will lose weight in their hump first, but as you guys know, our camels have LOTS of junk in the hump! Let’s just say that they never miss a snack. 🤣🐪

Happy Cinco De Drinko… or, Cinco De Bison, in our case! 🦬 Our newest addition is a sweet little girl, just in time for tacos and margaritas! 🌮🌮🌮

Just a couple gals squeezing an hour & a half of work into 30 seconds… if only it were that easy! 😉 But, Matrix loves a good barn #refresh! 🦒🦒🦒

Who wore it best?? 😂😂The #FallowDeer typically enjoy their rut (breeding season) during late autumn and early winter! During this time, the boys become extremely excited and can be found defending their territory and ladies. They rub their antlers on any and every thing: the ground, trees, weeds, fences, buildings, cars… you name it!! 👀These dudes seem to be carrying their mischief with them… 🤣🤣 Come out to see us for a crazy experience this holiday break! Our tours are running from 9am to 4:30pm every day. ✨
