May 2nd through Labor Day the zoo will open daily from 10am to 8pm.
Welcome to the Red River Zoo website
When you visit the Zoo you will see many animals that are rarely seen at other zoos such as Tanuki, East Caucasian Tur, White-lipped Deer and Pallas Cats. Of course, we also include many other more familiar animals like Meerkats, Tamarins and Bison and over 80 other species from around the world. While strolling through the park don't miss a magical ride on our fully-restored 1928 Allen Herschel Carousel.

Spirits of the Forest: This Summer's New Gray Wolf Exhibit.
Gaze through large viewing windows with wolves gazing back at you. This exciting new exhibit brings you nose to nose with one of North America's most majestic predators from inside a 19th century trapper's cabin. This log cabin depicts the daily life of a trapper in the Red River Valley.
Don't miss wolf feedings at 1:30pm every Saturday & Sunday in the trapper's cabin.
