Why Go

Opened in 1875, the second-oldest zoo in the country is famous for breeding endangered animals. Fiona, born premature in 2017, became an internet star. The zoo's 1875 Reptile House is the oldest zoo building in the United States, and its gardens light up with the Festival of Lights in winter.
