The Jackson Zoo

The Jackson Zoo gets in excess of 100,000 guests every year, with 110 sections of land that are home to 380 creatures, and 202 species. It has been a place for the community and its families to come together in a natural setting, surrounded by some of the most beautiful animals on the planet, for almost one hundred years.They take part in dynamic species survival programs and have plans to extend and open new shows all the time in the up and coming years.

They have 10 imperiled species, including panthers, arachnid monkeys, chimps, hippos, lemurs and the sky is the limit from there. Free with your confirmation is the children's sprinkle cushion, where they can play in the water each day until 3:30 p.m.Nowhere else in Mississippi can people watch a one-ton White rhino graze, a troop of chimps plays away their day, or a Sumatran tiger stalks a patch of sunshine.
