Review & FAQ:
The Capron Park Zoo is a small 8-acre zoo in Attleboro, Massachusetts, opened in 1937. The zoo is home to about 100 animals from 44 species. Exhibits include North and South American habitats with animals that live there, as well as Asian, African, and Australian animals such as emu, agouti, green tree python, lemur, white lion, kangaroo, meerkats, sloth bear, and Amur leopard. The zoo includes a building with a habitat for nocturnal animals, where day and night are reversed. It allows visitors to see animals that are active at night. There is also an indoor rainforest exhibit that provides home to porcupines, a two-toed sloth, fruit bats and many species of birds. An important part of the zoo is the education department for children that opened in 1991, which teaches children how the zoo works and how the animals interact.
