Our Animals
Meet Zooniversity's collection of live animal ambassadors—the creepy, the cute and the cuddly! We have more than 50 species of exotic animals from which to choose. Most of the animals in our care came to us as injured wildlife, abandoned "pets" or rescues from deplorable captive conditions. We have no petting zoo or farm animals. For safety reasons, we do not offer primates or large cats.
