The Ochsner Park Zoo is located at the corner of Park Street and Zoo Lane in the City of Baraboo. The zoo first opened in 1926 with 2 bear cubs and now has over 17 different animal species. The zoo is a USDA licensed facility that acquires animals that have been born in captivity from Wisconsin zoos or from licensed dealers. (Due to regulations, we do not accept animals from the public.)

  Canada Lynx, Bobcat, Prairie Dogs, Capuchin Monkeys, Wolves, Llamas, Black Bear, Nubian Goats, White-Tail Deer, Chukar Partridge, Great Horned Owls, Golden Pheasant, Potbellied Pigs and other animals. 

Feeding of the animals is prohibited other than from the zoo grain dispensers. Donations are appreciated.
