The Good Zoo
Overview
Good Zoo & Benedum Planetarium
For the first time in the zoo’s history, zebras will be grazing on the grounds of the Good Zoo! Visitors will be able to see two species, the common Grant’s zebra, and the endangered Grevy’s zebra. The zebras are a permanent addition to the zoo’s growing collection of rare and unique species. They are exhibited in the ostrich field along with our 3 ostriches, and may be viewed from either the train or the ostrich viewing area.
