Established in 1962, the park features several different habitats in which the animals comfortably reside, offering visitors a glimpse into how they live in their natural habitats.
The park features several picnic areas where visitors can enjoy alfresco lunches and a children’s playground to keep the little ones entertained. There is also a gift shop operated by the Merced Zoological Society (MZS) who also hosts special events and functions from which the funds go towards the upkeep of the Zoo.
