A small, privately operated wildlife sanctuary featuring more than 50 habitats for rescued and non-releasable animals, with a varied collection of mammals, birds, and reptiles in an outdoor setting.
Lynnwood Park Zoo is a veteran owned and operated wildlife sanctuary that has connected visitors with rescued and otherwise non-releasable animals since 1990. The facility houses animals from a range of backgrounds, including private owner surrenders, rescue situations, relocations, and animals rehabilitated but unable to return to the wild. Its mission centers on connecting the public with wildlife through education, giving the collection a strong focus on the individual stories behind its residents.
The zoo maintains more than 50 animal habitats covering a broad mix of mammals, birds, and reptiles. Animals listed by the zoo include foxes, bobcats, serval cats, wallabies, dingoes, alligators, owls, hawks, emus, tortoises, and several kinds of snakes. The entire facility is outdoors, with paths suitable for strollers and a layout designed for walking between habitats. Its modest scale and emphasis on rescued animals make it a useful choice for travelers seeking a smaller wildlife stop with an educational focus rather than a large traditional zoo collection.
