The zoo's website describes a visit as lasting under an hour, with exotic animals and reptiles that visitors can feed, pet, and interact with. The zoo is not accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums.
History
The zoo's website says the facility was established over 50 years ago as a refuge for exotic animals donated by owners no longer able to care for them. The site says the farm is committed to caring for those animals for their lifetimes.
Exhibits and habitats
The website describes hands-on activities: feeding the goats, bottle-feeding the pot-belly pig, dropping treats to the bear, lizards, and giant toads, and tossing treats to the monkeys and lemurs. Visitors can also feed the alligators in summer, according to the site. Approved organic treats are available at the front counter, and there is a gift shop.

AZAThe Association of Zoos and Aquariums. Accredited members have passed an independent inspection of animal care and welfare, safety, conservation and education, repeated every five years. Many smaller facilities never apply, so “not accredited” isn't a verdict on its own. What accreditation means · How we check this
