Hattiesburg Zoo

Description:

At the heart of Hattiesburg is one of the places that makes this town bristle with life. Tucked into 14 acres of Hattiesburg's Kamper Park is one of America's great small zoos.

Begun with a pair of lions, the zoo has grown to accommodate 19 exhibits from five continents, including the recent completion of a new South American habitat. Here, visitors come face-to-face with the zoos new jaguar, separated only by a clear pane of glass.

Other popular animals include zebras, ostriches, gibbons, guenons, lemurs, playful prairie dogs and, of course, alligators and mighty tigers. Future exhibits will include black bears, bobcats, raccoons, river otters, reptiles, waterfowl and several other species.

Kids will love riding the train and conquering the playground as well.

My kids love visiting the zoo and Kamper park (located right outside of the zoo entrance)! We pack lunches and stay for hours looking at favorite animals and playing with friends at the park! Inexpensive fun for all!
