Prospect Park Zoo is home to nearly 400 animals of more than 80 species. Kids will be amazed by close-up views of some of the wild's most unusual animals. The Zoo is operated by the Wildlife Conservation Society, known throughout the world for its innovative ways of caring for animals while increasing visitor interaction. The exhibits feature animals in environments mirroring their natural habitats, so that kids can observe the animals up-close and personal. Exhibits include "World of Animals," where kids can meet prairie dogs and wallabies face-to-face. Other zoo residents include the cotton-topped tamarin, the hamadryas baboon, the red panda, and a vibrant band of birds, reptiles and amphibians. The Zoo presents special events like "Keeping Up with the Keepers" and "Boo at the Zoo" and educational programs for individuals and school groups. And, a visit to the zoo is a great bargain!
