About this activity

With 12 acres of zoo fun nestled in 40 acres of park, Hattiesburg Zoo certainly gives you enough to enjoy for your family day out! 

Kids can have their days filled with discoveries at Hattiesburg Zoo. They can look right into the eyes of the world's largest species of cat (do you know what that would be?!), and they can try and spot the difference between zebras only by looking at their stripes (did you know that no two zebras are the same?)

They can laugh along with the lemurs, and even chat to a cockatoo. Ever touched a turtle? Now is your chance! Every time you visit the zoo there will be something new for you to experience. 

The Discovery Center at Hattiesburg Zoo is a great place to really get thrown into discovery when you first arrive. This "exploratorium" creates a fun learning experience for everyone who visits. Ever nook of this classroom is filled with hidden surprises. What will it be this time!?

Make sure you check the events of the day when you first arrive at the zoo, so you can plan your day around any activities or shows which are time specific. They are great chances for kids to see the animals interact, and learn more about them.

If you've had a long day looking at the animals and that sun is getting a little hot, then check out the new Splash Pad! Kids can play in more than 30 jets which shoot up to a cool (literally!) 14 feet in the air, and there is always plenty of space for everyone! It's a fun and cool ending for your family day out.

Parents, you can sit back and relax from your very splash free shade structure, and enjoy some drinks while the kids play - great fun!
