Have you ever seen an African Lion up close, or tried to reach the heights of a giraffe?
At Blank Park Zoo you can do just that and so much more in this WILD family day out in Iowa!
Blank Park Zoo features a host of amazing animals for the kids to learn about, explore, and enjoy! They can learn all about the life expectancy of the Aldabra Tortoise, or see the adorable Golden-headed Tamarin up close.
Kids can watch the suited penguins play, or hear those playful Sea Lions cheer!
Blank Park Zoo is also a great way for kids to learn all about conservation, especially with species such as the Eastern Black Rhino. It’s family fun and learning all in one!
It’s not just animals at this adorable zoo that kids can experience. In season, they can take to the tracks on the train, or watch the world go by from the carousel!
Have you ever enjoyed a camel ride? Well, you don’t have to go to the desert to do that anymore – not at Blank Park Zoo!
Families can really enjoy that animal experience with the animal feeding sessions, where you can hand feed giraffes, fish, and even ostrich by hand! How fun is that!
Don’t miss those fun events held at the zoo across the year either, including Halloween and Easter events that will entertain all, animal days, and more!
Are you ready for a WILD family day out at Blank Park Zoo? The animals are waiting to say hi, so let’s go!
The Blank Park Zoo is a wild adventure that takes place in Does Moines Iowa. The Blank Park Zoo is a safe fun place to go on train rides,enjoy animals,go on a camel ride,have snack and learn about all different kinds of animals from around the world. I have been to this gigantic structure before only once on the annual Musco (where my dad works) family picnic (event happens every year). It has a bunch of adorable animals inside this structure.(when we went here there was a goofy monkey I didn’t get what was so funny. Then I saw what was so funny a goofy monks doing something funny.)
The Blank Park Zoo is small, but cute. This zoo has some of my favorite animals. It is easy to navigate and there is are no long walks to each animal. There is an area where you can walk on an open path through an exhibit with wallabies and emus. They have a giraffe feeding and many enrichment programs that are fun for kids and adults. The exhibits are well made and all have great viewing areas. They are always improving and adding new animals. There is a train ride and a camel ride for the kids. All around a great zoo. Well worth the money and time.
Awesome time at the zoo. Just wish there was a little bit more order. Could barely experience one animal over the other, before countless people would try to push through. Though that aside, the entire place is a class act. Defiantly planning a second visit soon!
I adore animals any day of the week, and this zoo definitely had them. My only complaints would be the small size of the park, and that when I visited ALL of the large animal attractions were closed. If you plan to go, call ahead to make sure there isn’t any construction or anything. I think they should have lowered the prices for days where main attractions were closed.I liked the area where there were several large birds walking around with you (emus, peacocks), and also the petting zoo/camel rides.
Really fun in good weather, I’d do it again.
