Utica Zoo
About this place
A zoo in Utica housing lions, zebras, camels, otters, red pandas, eagles, and various other animals across multiple exhibits. Families walk through grounds with trails and landscaping to see the animals, which visitors describe as active and well cared for. The zoo also runs animal encounter experiences where educators introduce visitors to specific animals, and offers a children's zoo area, playground, and birthday party options. The site is compact enough to explore in a couple of hours without being exhausting.
