Would honestly give this five stars however after viewing the park and seeing the animals, we stopped by the gift shop, dog and myself waited outside in grass area yet we were told by staff that dog needed to leave and be put either in car or we would need to move to area far from gift shop.

So exciting to see all the animals that close! Our pup did get a little excited seeing the bears but she didn’t freak out like I thought she might. Must have two adults so you can trade off watching the dog when you go see the baby bears and caged animals. But there’s a very nice park area to hang out with your pup while you wait. We (family of 4) loved this attraction.

I took my German Shepherd and she was greeted with so much love at the front gate. She enjoyed the ride and I loved all the Animals. Dogs are not allowed in the area of the zoo that you walk through, but I don’t think she was missing much. There is a huge grass area across the parking lot from the gift shop for pups to potty. I went into the gift shop and got her some Jackalope Jerky for being so good. I’m glad we stopped here.
- MelissaAug 20, 2020Exciting Animal Fun
it was really fun to be able to drive and have all of these animals be close to your car. my dog loved it, especially the bears! The only downside is is when you get done with the drive-through portion there’s a part you can walk through but your dogs not allowed in that part.

My dog and I enjoyed this tour. He enjoyed spotting the animals from the back seat; he growled at the Elk, wanted to chase the sheep and was fascinated by the wolf. The animals are well used to cars passing through and come up very close. The bears do look unhappy, pacing up and down, which is sad to see.

The highlight of the park is the numerous bears you can see hanging out by the road, playing in the pond, and snoozing in the sun. They are a complete delight to watch! Many other types of wildlife are also in the park to view. Our dog didn't know what to make of it all! The only part of the park we didn't get to see was Babyland, because it was too hot out to leave the pooch in the car.

There were so many animals it was really exciting. Our little Chihuahua was most interested in the Wolves, Goats and the Bears.
