Omygoodness! This petting zoo was so much fun! We got lucky and visited during first responder days, so the price was just right! We took the grandsons and my son and his girlfriend, this is a place that can be enjoyed by all ages! So many animals to pet and love on! Reptiles, deer, monkeys...you name it and it is there! The bird house was so much fun, but beware...the birds will perch on your shoulder, hair or whatever, so if you have a fear of birds, enjoy the view from the outside! For Fyi...you do need to purchase food for the animals, if you choose, and grab some honey before you leave, it is amazing!!

Are dogs allowed to come in at bee city

Franklin Raynor | Jan 12, 2022
Bee City Zoo & Honey Bee Farm | Jan 12, 2022

Well we obviously love animals. And are happy to see people enjoy our animals as well as their own. We have a lot of rescue animals and animals that don’t understand that the dogs are not here to hurt them. There is a rule written for specific situations like ours. It describes it best. At a zoo service animals can be restricted from areas where animals on display are natural prey or natural predators of dogs, where the presence of a dog would be disruptive, causing the displayed animals to behave aggressively or become agitated. That extremely limits the areas in which we can allow dogs. Sorry for the inconvenience; But I hope that explains our situation. Thank you Bee City Zoo

P1umberry | Sep 9, 2020
Jessie France | Sep 9, 2020

Food for your own pet is allowed but no outside food for the animals in the park. I also found out that you can bring in your parakeets and release them into the aviary, if you're looking to relocate your keets. Nice place to spend an afternoon.
