Cougar Mountain Zoo

A great, well maintained, small zoo. I liked the size. Not too big, so that you have to be there all day.

They had some great shows too. I saw the tiger lecture and the bird show. Both were worth the time.

Feeding the alpacas was the best part.

A great zoo for little ones. My 2 year old and I went two times around the zoo in 2 hours. Love how you can see all the animals up close and that they have so many statues of other zoo animals. Hoping to come back when more features are open like feeding animals or seeing presentations.

Update. Came with my 2 and 4 year old and we had a lovely time. Parking was a bit challenging but a great size zoo for toddlers. We were able to feed the animals and actually got to see the tigers awake. Great staff who enjoy interacting with the kids.

Its a private zoo however, they call it society zoo. You can celebrate your birthday at some cost or can adopt animal. Its a clean, organised and small zoo. Too good for babies and kids as its easy to walk and can see animals from a good distance. They have many animals, we loved tigers. There is a sitting area where you can sit, rest or enjoy food.

Cougar Mountain is a wonderfully designed zoo. It's not anywhere as big as Woodland Park Zoo, but what they have is so wonderfully and lovingly done. They have mountain lions, reindeer, wolves, lemurs, wallabys, and an array of birds. And you can get up close and feed a number of the animals. We'll definitely be back to visit again!

Absolutely worth a visit. These folks have packed some great enclosures into a relatively small space, with fantastic views of the mountains on a clear day. Extremely kind and knowledgeable zookeepers and volunteers (who absolutely took time out of their days to answer questions and geek out with me about apex predator behavior), and really great enrichment activities for the animals. Plus, got this awesome photo of one of the wolves being a goofball. Highly recommend checking them out--if you go for a hike at Cougar Mountain, this is a great stop to unwind! I had no idea the place existed and essentially stumbled upon it, and I'm really glad I did.
