Palm Beach Zoo & Conservation Society Map and Brochure (2024 – 2013)
Location: West Palm Beach, Florida
Years Active: 1969 – Active
Forget those stuffy zoos with bored animals in tiny enclosures. The Palm Beach Zoo & Conservation Society throws that out the window. This place is wild, a real haven for critters on the brink. Jaguars, tigers, weird monkeys you’ve never heard of – they’re all here, and the Zoo fights tooth and nail to protect them.
It’s not huge, but they pack a punch in those 23 acres. Lush pathways, hidden exhibits… you’ll feel like an explorer. The big cats are most active at dusk. If you can swing a late visit, it’s worth it for the prowling predators alone.
The Palm Beach Zoo does more than just show off animals. They get their hands dirty with conservation projects. Check their schedule – they’ve got talks, events, and even chances to get up close with some of the residents. Warning: you might leave wanting to adopt a sloth. It’s happened before.
