Wildwood Wildlife Park Zoo & Safari

2nd largest zoo in Wisconsin! Giraffes, Tigers, Penguins- OH MY! Wildwood Wildlife Park Zoo & Safari is home to over 1,700 animals and 229 species!
(4)

A visit to the Giraffe Serengeti brings you close enough to one of the tallest mammals in the world. When the giraffe leans down to nibble out of your hand, they might steal a kiss from you instead! The Parakeet Encounter is on everyone’s favorite list! These colorful comical characters are sure to make everyone smile when they land on your hand, head or shoulder just to say “Hi”. Guests will have

the opportunity to hand feed many of our animals “critter food.” This is zoo approved treats that can be purchased in the gift shop. Or you can purchase petting food pellets from our vending machines throughout the park. Don’t be surprised when many of our residents come looking for a hand-out! Critter food/ petting food pellets can be fed to goats, sheep, deer, camel and aoudads. Or buy trout pellets from the feed machines and toss into the pond and see the entire surface come alive with a frenzy of trout or koi. Guests can just sit and relax in this peaceful and tranquil area. The fun begins as soon as you step foot through the zoo's main entrance! Enjoy the awesome petting zoo. Get up close and learn about amazing animals at the outdoor amphitheater. Leopard and tigers, oh my! Come and see many rare and endangered animals featuring the new Snow Leopards. Check out some of the world's largest, rarest, and most impressive animals, including Giraffes, Zebras, Bongo, Arabian Oryx and more! Don't forget to take a ride on the Safari Tram and enjoy the guided 30-minute tour viewing magnificent animals including Kudu, Nyala, Beisa Oryx, Scimitar Oryx, Wildebeest, Eland and more. Or swing into the primate world where you will find the playful Gibbons and the loud Siamangs entertaining you. After that, waddle on down to the African penguins, where they will come and greet you up close! If you get hungry grab a hot dog or deep fried cheese curds or maybe a sweet treat at the ice cream shoppe. You will spend the entire day wandering through the 259 acres at Wildwood Wildlife Park Zoo and Safari. Can't wait to see you soon at the #1 family friendly Zoo where special memories are made with each visit!

Summer is a busy time for everyone, and here at Wildwood Wildlife Park there are no signs of slowing down any time soon. There is change on the horizon as we continue to push forward on making Wildwood Wildlife Park the best it can be! We are thrilled to announce that our excavation team has officially begun work on our next building expansion! We would like to thank two of our sponsors thus far on this project; Rynders Companies for getting the area all prepped and ready to begin our project and McCoy Construction & Forestry for providing all the equipment that was needed! After months of planning and preparation, we are ready to announce the next animal exhibit being built here at the zoo. There will be a new Conservation Siamang Monkey Building being built behind the Penguins/Pond area. Being busy is good, especially when the fruits of our labor can be shared with a community that recognizes the importance of the hard work that goes into being successful with the animals, education, and conservation missions. We are very excited for the new expansion here at Wildwood Wildlife Park!

Happy Independence Day!
We are open on July 4, 2024

EVERY pumpkin that is grown in our Pumpkin Patch Event held in fall is all hand planted! Here is proof of it! The pumpkin patch had to be tilled up first to get the soil ready, then we go row by row and hand plant hundreds of seeds to get them ready in time for the event in October. If you haven't marked down the dates yet, they are October 5th & 6th, 2024. 🎃🎃🎃🎃
