History
Animals have been exhibited at this location since 1933, when it was known as Jungleland Snake Farm. Owner Gordon Gaver operated the small attraction (approx. 5 acres) until his death in 1964. The facility was then purchased by Richard and Mary Anne Hahn and reopened in 1966. The Hahn family maintained ownership and gradually enlarged the park. In August 2012, the zoo was fined by the United States Department of Agriculture 's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service $12,000 for numerous violations. In 2013, a giraffe died while on exhibit at the zoo. Worker safety and animal care issues at the zoo have been raised for a number of years.
