About Us

Our Story

Lynnwood Park Zoo is a veteran owned and operated sanctuary that first opened in 1990. The mission of our facility is to connect the public with wildlife through education. We are unique in that our animals hail from various backgrounds such as private owner surrenders, rescue situations, other facilities downsizing or shutting down, rehabilitated animals unfit to be released back into the wild, and relocations. Every animal has a story. Be sure to ask a keeper or volunteer if you have any questions about anyone in particular

The Critters!

The zoo displays over 50 animal habitats, with many different species ranging from reptiles, birds, mammals and many more.  Animal availability is subject to change. Keep in mind animal activity levels will vary throughout the day. 

During cooler months, some animals are off display due to the cold weather.


 ***Most reptiles and some birds may be off display until May due to colder nighttime temperatures and fluctuations in temperatures throughout the week.***
