    Okay i am not one to like petting zoos, but this was AMAZING. I went in expecting disrespected animals in poor enclosures and that was NOT the case. Every animal was excited to see people, they made sure the animals were treated well and very fair priced. The animals look well tended and happy. A vet tech took our home school group around and taught us some cool things about their exotic critters. We even got to see a Newbern baby alpacha, camels, a baby cow, lots of cute baby pigs, ferrets, ring tailed lemurs and so much more. I have 3 kids 5 and under. Animals were all respectful and great to my kids. Will be going again.

    I had a group of 10 (5 Adults, 5 children) and we all had a wonderful time. Website doesn't get updated much and it seems that prices may vary day-to-day based on animal availability, how busy it is, weather, etc... (we paid $20 per person for entrance and to hold wallabies) The animals are obviously well taken care of. They keep the place nice and clean and the animals have plenty of space to roam around. Tip from the unwise: don't give your feed bucket to the camel - it'll take the whole thing. Beautiful place and a hidden gem in Arkansas. Fully recommend!
