Bear Hollow Zoo

About Bear Hollow Zoo

Bear Hollow Zoo is home to a variety of non-releasable wildlife residents. These animals have encountered a challenge that they could not overcome, either physical or behavioral, and have been placed here to live out their lives serving as ambassadors for their species. They are here to educate our visitors about the wonderful wildlife with which we share space.

Bear Hollow Zoo is located within Memorial Park

Memorial Park is open from 8 AM to sunset on weekdays and 9 AM to sunset on weekends and holidays. Bear Hollow Zoo is open from 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM daily. Only service animals are permitted within Bear Hollow Zoo.
