It is also a completely different experience than a visit to the Zoo. The 1,800-acre wildlife preserve, which allows visitors to view herds of exotic animals as they might have been seen in their native Asia and Africa, was established in 1969 under the directorship of Dr. Charles Schroeder. It opened its gates to the public in 1972 and has grown more impressive ever since. Today, the Park has over 3,500 animals representing 260 species, and is also an accredited botanical garden. HOURS OF OPERATION AND ADMISSION PRICES Hours: The Wild Animal Park is open 365 days a year. Winter hours are in effect: 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. (grounds close at 5 p.m.) Admission Prices: General admission: Adults (ages 12 and over) $21.95, Child (3-11) $14.95. Children 2 and under are free.
