Review & FAQ:

From African Journey to Australian Adventure and Indonesian Rainforest, you can travel around the world while visiting more than 1000 animals living happily at the Fort Wayne Children's Zoo , one of the best zoos in the country. At Central Zoo, stop at Monkey Island, where cute capuchin monkeys are being silly. At Sea Lion Beach, watch the feeding frenzy take place twice a day, while at the pool next door, you can see a bunch of penguins having fun.

Visit river otters, lemurs, and red pandas, play with goats and cows at the Indiana Family Farm, take a pony ride on Little Poof or take a ride on the 1860's mini train. Down the African safari trail, you can feed the giraffes, admire 400-pound lions, or listen to yacking hyenas. On the Australian Adventure, visit the reef and its inhabitants and watch the sharks cruising in their own enormous aquarium. And that is not all - there are 40 acres of wonderful natural habitats to explore. If you are looking for fun things to do in Fort Wayne with kids, this is a great place to visit.
