At Cape May County Park & Zoo, 550 animals are cared for in a pristine natural environment. Since its opening in 1978, the zoo has participated in numerous species survival programs. Now it is home to 250 mammals, amphibians, birds, and reptiles, and a breeding ground for snow leopards--large Asian cats with thick fur and paws for walking through snow. The park is known for being particularly tidy and organized. Picnic areas, bike paths, a disk-golf court, and even fishing ponds are available. Just remember, you cannot bring food into the zoo. However, you can purchase it from a cafe at the site, which offers healthy food, fast food, snacks, and beverages.

  It's one of the best zoos in the country. The place is clean and the animals are well cared for. They do not charge for admission so it's voluntary what you pay for. The zoo is spacious and the animals have lots of room to move around. It's a great outing for the whole family and it won't break the bank. We usually give them a decent donation though because it is worth it.

  The Cape May County Park is great ! Had nothing to do one day... I was trying to think of something where I haven't been lately...Bingo !!! Cape May County Park Zoo came to mind...weather was perfect..not too much traffic. All the animals were awake...they didn't feed lunch yet... I was thrilled to see all awake. I loved it...very clean...benches all over... But most of all...I loved all the Animals. Excellent & fun day.
