Sacramento Zoo

Sacramento Zoo is a nonprofit, AZA-accredited zoological park in Sacramento, California, with roots going back to its founding in 1927 as the William Land Park Zoo. Today the zoo cares for more than 300 rare, endangered, and native animals across carnivores, birds, reptiles, ungulates, primates, and more. Signature experiences include daily giraffe feedings at the popular Tall Wonders of Africa exhibit and behind-the-scenes tours that offer an exclusive look at animal care. The zoo's Reptile House provides a home for amphibians and reptiles, and the okapi exhibit highlights one of Africa's most elusive forest species. The zoo supports active conservation programs focused on North and Central American wildlife, and its educational mission reaches schools and families throughout the region. The Sacramento Zoo is a treasured community institution providing wildlife education and memorable encounters in the heart of California's capital.
