Evansville’s Mesker Park Zoo

**Please note** At this time our Penguins, Emus, and Ostriches are temporarily behind the scenes with the recent Avian Flu case. In addition, the top half of Amazonia which houses our free-flight aviary is also closed, however, the lower half is still open. We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your understanding as we ensure the safety of our flock.

Connecting people with the world around them happens naturally at Mesker Park Zoo & Botanic Garden. Your visit to Indiana’s first zoo offers a worldwide adventure as you encounter hundreds of animals representing species from around the globe.

Located on 45 scenic acres on Evansville’s northwest side, we welcome you to our unique zoo and think you’ll enjoy being completely immersed in natural beauty. From the South American rainforest of Amazonia to the Family Garden, Lake Victoria, and the rolling hills in between, connecting people with the natural world is mission accomplished when you visit Mesker Park Zoo & Botanic Garden.
