Lupa Zoo

Lupa Zoo is a 20-acre conservation and education institution operated by a nonprofit organization, with a collection focused on demonstrating the value and interdependence of living things. The zoo's habitats are designed to create naturalistic surroundings for the animals while giving visitors an approachable setting for wildlife observation. Its collection includes rare and endangered species alongside more familiar animals, with a strong emphasis on conservation, education, and animal welfare.

The animal collection includes several species of lemurs and tamarins, marmosets, spider and capuchin monkeys, South American tapirs, binturongs, kinkajous, serval cats, African porcupines, antelope, zebras, river otters, capybaras, and a range of reptiles and birds. Visitors explore the grounds at their own pace, with animal feeding available for selected species. The zoo also provides educational programs and group visits that encourage closer observation and understanding of wildlife. Its wooded setting, conservation focus, and varied collection make Lupa Zoo particularly suited to travelers seeking a smaller zoo experience centered on endangered species and animal care.
