Wild Animal Safari in Strafford, Missouri, near Springfield, is one of the Midwest's most exciting wildlife adventures, set across more than 350 acres of open parkland. The signature experience is a five-mile drive-through safari where over 65 species of animals including giraffes, zebras, camels, bison, elk, wildebeest, and water buffalo roam freely and approach vehicles to be fed directly by guests. Visitors can drive their own vehicle, rent a Safari SUV, or join the complimentary guided safari bus tour. A walk-through Walkabout Adventure Zoo complements the drive with close-up encounters with Bengal tigers, African lions, lemurs, monkeys, peacocks, and exotic birds. With interactive feeding opportunities in both sections and something to delight every member of the family, Wild Animal Safari delivers an unforgettable outdoor wildlife experience in the heart of the Missouri Ozarks.
