Are you looking for your own SAFARI adventure? We’re right here!! Centrally located to ATX & SATX! 🦒 This is the place for you!
(5845)

When visiting us, you'll embark on an adventure through 137 sprawling wooded acres where 700+ exotic animals from 50 different species roam freely! We have a few different options for our daily visitors:

(1) Drive your OWN car through the park to visit the animals. Keep in mind that we are not responsible for damages to the vehicle from hooves, antlers or horns. That's just part of the FUN! * Online tickets required for Drive-Thru. *

(2) For a more unique and interactive experience, take a ride on the wild side on one of our Guided Tours! This is an open air tractor-trailer ride where the animals come from ALL directions. With a one-of-a-kind Tour Guide at your disposal, you’ll learn all about our babies and how we extend and preserve exotic wildlife here in Texas. * No reservations or online tickets needed for Guided Tour. *

We are a family-owned and operated business. So, it is each of YOU that keep us here and our animals taken care of. We can't wait to see you, whether it be a daily visit or an extended stay in one of our cabins.

Get a guide that loves her job as much as you love visiting! We’re convinced that Tour Guide Jay is always having just as much fun (if not more) as her visitors on each and every tour… what a blessing it is to enjoy what you do! 🚜🚜🚜

BAH, IT’S SO FLUFFY. 🦘

Let’s talk about Joeys —
These nuggets are born extremely underdeveloped, after all short 30 day gestation period in the womb. They climb from the womb, to the pouch and tuck in for several months, suckling on continuous milk. After a few months, they clumsily take on life outside the pouch by periodically jumping out and cautiously exploring their surroundings. Officially getting evicted around a year old. At this time, mom will kickstart the development of her next embryo to replace her youngin’ in a perfectly timed process called embryonic diapause.

A fascinating life cycle if you ask me! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Okay, fine. It’s actually us thinking about Thanksgiving. 🤣
