Welcome to the Red River Zoo's website!
I hope you will find the contents of this site both helpful and informative. The Red River Zoo, located in Fargo, North Dakota, is still very much a new zoo. The initially developed eight acres of the Red River Zoo were opened in the autumn of 1998 and continue to grow. An additional twenty-five acres remain for future development of exciting new animal exhibits and visitor service features. The Red River Zoo is owned and operated by the Red River Zoological Society, a nonprofit and self-supported organization. Your visit to the Red River Zoo makes the mission of the Red River Zoological Society possible. I invite you to explore the Red River Zoo and its fascinating animal residents!
