Forest Park Zoo Reviews

It is fabulous and the employees are very polite. You have to visit this place. Bring your children. Yambien there are some very good playgrounds.

I thought this would be a good place to bring my 7 year old daughter because it's close to home... We were feeding goats and out of nowhere one of them started screaming in pain because one of her ears was stuck on the wood fence. People were going crazy trying to find a staff member to help the goat. She ended up tearing a large piece of her ear. The poor goat was bleeding alot and no one came to assist. I asked my daughter to go look at other animals, she was traumatized by what she had just witnessed. About 15 minutes later, I saw two female employees on the golf cart chatting. I interrupted for a minute and told him the situation they just looked at each other and one said that happens all the time and they continued their conversation... I stood in shock and speechless. Then she looked at me and said sarcastically thank you and continued her conversation. I walked by the goat one more time on our way out and no one had went to check on her and her ear was still bleeding. So traumatizing to my seven-year-old shame on you for having horrible staff and not caring about your animals.

A wonderful place to escape for a couple of hours and learn about nature. Clean and well kept.

Took my 3 yr old nephew it was the perfect place for the little guy. We enjoyed the gardens afterward.
