Red River Zoo

We are from out of town. This zoo has improved a lot since I live in Fargo, almost 15 years ago. There are a lot of animals to see. The staff was friendly, helpful, and informative. We hosted my daughter's birthday party here. Since we were from out of town, we weren't going to be able to get a cake, reschedule for another day, or anything. They took care of the cake, location, preparation, clean up, everything. We enjoyed our time at the zoo. The price was really reasonable too!

Absolutely love this zoo. It's not very big, but what they do, they do very well. Nicely designed exhibits/habitats for the animals with very nice information placards for each. They have a focus on creatures from a similar climate so as not to cause them stress from a North Dakota winter. Most of the animals are from the more mountainous parts of Asia. They work with different programs preserving endangered species including a breeding program for red pandas. Highly recommend visiting here.

This is a super great place to take your family. Fun to learn about different animals than are typically at most zoos. I’m excited to see it grow and see the different animals they will get. Also they do many fun events that give parents a chance to take an evening off. Also Red Pandas are too cute!

Not a very large zoo; you can go through it in less than an hour. However, it does have a wide range of animals and it is working hard to expand and improve it's exhibits. For the reason it looks like a new zoo despite being around for awhile. Frequent zoo talks by staff to educate people on various animals. Successful breeding program means usaully you can see baby animals in the spring. Popular exhibits include the otters, wolves, and red pandas.

The Red River Zoo is pretty young but is full of some awesome sights, especially for kids. My two year old loves the otters and wolves. All of the exhibits are well designed for smaller kids to view the animals as well as those that are blessed with height. With many unique events offered, including holiday nights and earth day celebrations I recommend this zoo!
